  • noting that the garnishment statutes are intended to provide the garnishee “ease” in answering a garnishment
  • noting that because the business was a sole proprietorship, the question was whether its owner/proprietor was liable, as the business did not constitute a “separate legal entity”
  • “The principal will not be deemed responsible for the acts of the putative agent where only the agent’s own conduct has created the appearance of agency.”
  • “If there 3 is any dispute as to the amount of the garnishee’s indebtedness to the judgment debtor, or as to whether there is any such indebtedness, the trial court may receive evidence on the indebtedness of the garnishee to the debtor.”
