ROBERTSON, Justice, for the Court:

I.

This matter is before the Court on a third party's objections to the fact and scope of a judgment creditor's post-judgment examination. We hold that the judgment creditor may conduct the examination but that it is limited in scope to matters, not privileged, relevant to the judgment creditor's allegations that the judgment debtor has assets which properly should be discovered and used to satisfy the judgment.
