A collection attorney garnished my bank account for an old judgement that I had forgotten about. I went directly to the court and paid the amount in full.
The collection attorney refused to release the garnishment and/or file a satisfaction of judgement until they received the money from the court. Casenet already shows a check issued to them...
I filed a request for satisfaction of judgement and the Judge has now signed off on it.
I faxed a copy of this to the bank (Bank of America). They are telling me that they have to get a release from the Collection Attorney. I have provided them a copy of the receipt showing the full amount paid and the satisfaction of judgement signed by the Judge.
What are my options now?
The bank doesn't have to honor a signed court document? The signed satisfaction of judgement?
How long can the Collection attorney drag his feet on this. He said he will release it "when he gets around to it"...
I need my accounts released in order to operate my business. Is there anything I can do?
