Meaning of Garnishee under Civil Procedure Code :

[amp_mcq option1=”Creditor’s debtor” option2=”Debtor’s debtor” option3=”Judgement debtor’s debtor” option4=”None of the above ” correct=”option3″]

The correct answer is (c). A garnishee is a person who owes money to a judgment debtor. The judgment creditor can serve a garnishment order on the garnishee, which requires the garnishee to pay the money owed to the judgment debtor to the judgment creditor instead.

(a) A creditor’s debtor is a person who owes money to a creditor. This is not the same as a garnishee, because a garnishee is a person who owes money to a judgment debtor, not a creditor.

(b) A debtor’s debtor is a person who owes money to a debtor. This is not the same as a garnishee, because a garnishee is a person who owes money to a judgment debtor, not a debtor.

(d) None of the above is the correct answer.
