Duties
of personal representative who is garnished.
Garnishment does not impair the powers of a personal
representative over estate property for the purposes of administration. If a
personal representative receives a writ of garnishment, the personal
representative must prepare and deliver a garnishee response in the manner
provided by ORS 18.600 to 18.850, but no payment of money or delivery of
property need be made by the personal representative until such time as
specified in this section. The personal representative must note on the
response that the property is estate property subject to administration. The
personal representative must also file a copy of the writ of garnishment and
the garnishee response in the office of the court administrator for the court
in which the estate is being administered, and must report the garnishment to
the court in any petition for distribution. In a judgment made upon such
petition, distribution shall be ordered to the heir or legatee, but delivery
shall be ordered to the sheriff or to the garnishor, as required by ORS 18.600
to 18.850. [2001 c.249 §23; 2003 c.576 §55]
