Dixie National Bank v. Chase
Florida Court of Appeals
485 So.2d 1353 (1986)
After Dixie National Bank (defendant) disclosed only one small account belonging to judgment debtor Gore in response to Chase's (plaintiff's) first garnishment writ, a records-search error caused it to miss a second account entirely, and a subsequent second writ again failed to catch that account until Dixie eventually discovered and disclosed it in an amended answer -- by which point nearly $14,000 had already been deposited into and withdrawn from that undisclosed account since the first writ was served; the trial court entered judgment against Dixie for that full amount.
Whether a garnishee is liable to the garnishor creditor for all debts which the garnishee owes to the defendant debtor at the time the writ of garnishment is filed and for all such similar debts incurred by the said garnishee between service of the writ and the time that the garnishee files a complete answer disclosing all such debts.
