TOWER CREDIT, INC. v. CARPENTER

No. 2001-C-2875.

825 So.2d 1125 (2002)

TOWER CREDIT, INC. v. Tonya CARPENTER.

Supreme Court of Louisiana.

Rehearing Denied October 4, 2002.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Ricky L. Babin, Melissa L. Boudreaux, Stephen P. Sheets, Gonzales, Counsel for Applicant.

Richard D. Bankston, Baton Rouge, Counsel for Respondent.

CALOGERO, Chief Justice.

We granted this writ to consider whether a garnishee who failed to answer garnishment interrogatories should be held responsible for the entire amount of the creditor's $10,309.68 judgment. We find that the garnishee, upon contradictory hearing, presented sufficient evidence that she was not indebted to the judgment debtor. Hence, we reverse the ruling of the court of appeal and reinstate the judgment of the trial court.
