A plaintiff is automatically entitled to a writ of garnishment if execution of a writ of attachment fails to produce proceeds sufficient to satisfy a breach-of-contract judgment in favor of the plaintiff.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

This statement is false. In most cases, a separate process must be followed to obtain a writ of garnishment after a judgment has been entered in the plaintiff's favor. The failure of a writ of attachment to produce sufficient proceeds does not automatically entitle the plaintiff to a writ of garnishment.
