Corporations; Garnishments; Release of Accounts
The Firm was retained on an emergency basis to represent several out-of-state corporations which were related to and named similarly to a Georgia corporation against which a substantial judgment had been obtained in Federal Court in an adjoining state. Also, a garnishment action had been filed by the adverse party in Federal Court in Atlanta, but it had failed to properly identify in which state the judgment-debtor corporation was incorporated. The Firm successfully convinced the Federal Court judge to dismiss the action, thereby releasing the corporate bank accounts of all the related and similarly-named corporations, allowing our Clients immediate access to funds in those accounts.
