Various types of papers that we serve:

General Executions - Personal Property - A general execution is a writ commanding an officer to satisfy a judgment out of any personal property of the defendant. If authorizing him to levy only on certain specified property, the writ is sometimes called a special execution. In other words simply stated, the sheriff is ordered to levy on any and all non-exempt property. A general execution can be by garnishment, sheriff sale or levy.

Garnishments - A garnishment is a legal proceeding taken by a "creditor" after a judgment is received from a court against a "debtor". If the creditor knows that the debtor has money, or property, in the hands of a "garnishee" (wages owed by the debtor's employer, funds in a bank account, etc.), the creditor can take as much as the law allows.

Injunction - A court order prohibiting someone from doing some specified act or commanding someone to undo some wrong or injury. A prohibitive, equitable remedy issued or granted by a court at the suit of a party complainant, directed to a party defendant in the action, or to a party made a defendant for that purpose, forbidding the latter from doing some act which he is threatening or attempting to commit, or restraining him in the continuance thereof, such act being unjust an inequitable, injurious to the plaintiff, and not such as can be adequately redressed by an action at law. A judicial process operating in personam, and requiring person to whom it is directed to do or refrain from doing a particular thing. Generally, it is a preventive and protective remedy, aimed at future acts, and is not intended to redress past wrongs.

Temporary Injunction - A preliminary or provisional injunction, or one granted pending the lawsuit; as opposed to a final or perpetual injunction. A provisional remedy to preserve subject matter of controversy pending trial. It is one which operates until dissolved by interlocutory order (meaning: one which does not finally determine a course of action by only decides some intervening matter pertaining to the cause, and which requires further steps to be taken in order to enable the court to adjudicate the cause on the merits.) until final hearing on matter. (Also refer to temporary restraining order)

Order - A mandate, precept; a command or direction authoritatively given; a rule or regulation. Direction of a court or judge made or entered in writing, and not included in a judgment, which determines some point or directs some step in the proceedings. An application or an order is a motion.

Restraining Order - An order which may issue upon the filing of an application for an injunction forbidding the defendant to do the threatened act until a hearing on the application can be held. Though the term is sometimes used as a synonym of "injunction," a restraining order is properly distinguished from an injunction in that the former is intended only as a restraint upon the defendant until the propriety of granting an injunction, temporary or perpetual, can be determined, and it does no more than restrain the proceedings until such determination.

Temporary Restraining Order - An emergency judicial remedy of brief duration which may issue only in exceptional circumstances and only until the trial court can hear arguments or evidence, as the circumstances require, on the subject matter of the controversy and otherwise determine what relief is appropriate. Court order which is issued to maintain status quo pending a hearing on an application for an injunction.

Show Cause Order - Court order, decree, execution, etc, to appear as directed, and present to the court such reasons and considerations as one has to offer why a particular order, decree, etc. should not be confirmed, take effect, be executed, or as the case may be.
