Bank Levy - Writ of Execution

[howdidithappen]

Live in NJ. If a writ of execution for a bank levy is issued, how many times can that same writ be used? Just one time and the "court officer " has to get another signed by the judge, or can they keep going back for another bank levy? What happens if they levy on your bank and your balance is zero? Does the sheriff still collect his fee? Besides the debtor, who goes to court for the motion to turn over the funds? How can one find out what creditor levied against the bank account?

To try and answer your questions:
1) don't know, but getting writ of execution is fairly easy, it's basically a rubber stamp process
2) if they levy but nothing found, then nothing is gotten, and no commission. i've seen a lot of "motion to turn over funds" on the court calendar for small sums. they will take $6 if that's all there is.
3) nobody goes to court it's all "on the papers"
4) you'll get a "motion to turn over funds" saying who the bank is and who the creditor is and how much they got and at that point it's up to you to file an objection and claim your $1000 state exemption otherwise they'll take it all.
