Summary
The bill amends state law so that a garnishee who prepares a garnishment disclosure must be paid $15.50, which is counted as part of the plaintiff’s costs. The payment must be noted on the return of service, and if the fee is not paid the garnishment proceeding is void. This change impacts garnishees, plaintiffs and the courts that handle garnishment cases.
