Cadle Co. v. Pegasus Ranch, Inc., No. 4D05-1636, COURT OF APPEAL OF FLORIDA, FOURTH DISTRICT, March 1, 2006, Decided
View this case - free  

Overview: Fla. Stat. § 77.041 supplemented, rather than replaced, Fla. Stat. § 222.12. Trial court erred when it narrowly focused on word "contest" in Fla. Stat. § 77.041 in dissolving garnishment writs. Assignee's replies were sufficient to "contest" a judgment debtor's claims of exemption, and the trial court should have held an evidentiary hearing.
