HB1179 — modify provisions related to the reimbursement fee for preparation of a garnishment disclosure.
What changed between bill versions as it moved through the Legislature.
The amendment narrows the bill's scope by changing it from a straightforward fee increase to a more conditional reimbursement structure, requiring the garnishee to receive the plaintiff's garnishment disclosure before the fee becomes due and reducing the reimbursement amount from fifty dollars to forty dollars. This shifts the bill from simply raising costs to plaintiffs to creating a contingency-based payment system tied to actual disclosure receipt.
