• holding that once a judgment debtor answers a garnishment showing the true indebtedness, the garnishment statutes do not allow the entry of a judgment for the full amount of the debt
• explaining that a garnishment “is in the nature of an attachment of a debt due the judgment debtor from the garnishee” (citation omitted)
• “If the garnishee files an answer before the conditional judgment is imposed, this obviates the need for such a ‘wake-up call.’”
