Title 14, Chapter 8, Section 28
( 14-8-28)
(a) On due application to a competent court by any judgment creditor
of a partner or of any assignee of an interest in the partnership,
the court which entered the judgment, order, or decree, or any other
court, may charge the interest of the debtor partner or such
assignee with payment of the unsatisfied amount of such judgment
debt with interest thereon and may then or later appoint a receiver
of his share of the profits, and of any other money or other assets
due or to fall due to him in respect of the partnership, and,
subject to subsection (b) of this Code section, make all other
orders, directions, accounts, and inquiries which the debtor partner
or such assignee might have made, or which the circumstances of the
case may require. (b) An interest charged pursuant to subsection (a) of this Code
section is not liable to be seized and sold by the judgment creditor
under execution. (c) The interest charged may be redeemed or purchased without
thereby causing a dissolution: (1) With separate property, by any one or more of the partners; or (2) With the partnership property, by any one or more of the
partners with the consent of all the partners whose interests are
not so charged or sold. (d) Nothing in this chapter shall be held to deprive a partner of
his right, if any, under the exemption law, as regards his interest
in the partnership. (e) In addition to the remedy conferred by subsection (a) of this
Code section, the interest of a partner in the partnership may be
reached by a judgment creditor by process of garnishment served on
the firm, provided that the complaint upon which the judgment was
obtained was personally served upon such partner. (f) Subject to subsection (b) of this Code section, the remedies
conferred by subsections (a) and (e) of this Code section shall not
be deemed exclusive of others which may exist. |
