Statute 61-3513: Payment of earnings withheld by
garnishee.
This
section shall apply if
the garnishment
is to attach earnings of the judgment debtor. If no reply is made to the
answer of garnishee
within 10 days following the date the garnishee has
sent the completed answer to the judgment creditor and
judgment debtor, the
garnishee shall
promptly thereafter pay the earnings withheld as indicated on the answer to all
judgment
creditors designated on the answer in the amount due each as indicated on the
answer, unless
the garnishee receives prior to such payment an order of the court to the
contrary. If any
judgment creditor receives more than they are entitled to, that judgment
creditor shall
promptly pay the excess amount pro-rata to the other judgment creditors
designated on the answer, or if no such other judgment creditors are
designated, the judgment creditor shall promptly pay the excess amount to the
judgment debtor.
