Does GEO's lawyer realize that 17-59(a) is for PO
Post# of 8054
Maybe the judge is an idiot, but I suspect he is not and will shoot this full of holes by the end of the week. Perhaps, Bob and Joe should see this?
Section 17.59:
Post Judgment Relief
(a)
If a money judgment entered under this subchapter is unsatisfied 30 days after it becomes final and if the prevailing party has made a good faith attempt to obtain satisfaction of the judgment, the following presumptions exist with respect to the party against whom the judgment was entered:
(3) that the prevailing party will be materially injured unless a receiver is appointed over the defendant's business; and
(4) that there is no adequate remedy other than receivership available to the prevailing party.
(b)
Subject to the provisions of Subsection (a) of this section, a prevailing party may move that the defendant show cause why a receiver should not be appointed. Upon adequate notice and hearing, the court shall appoint a receiver over the defendant's business unless the defendant proves that all of the presumptions set forth in Subsection (a) of this section are not applicable.
(c)
The order appointing a receiver must clearly state whether the receiver will have general power to manage and operate the defendant's business or have power to manage only a defendant's finances. The order shall limit the duration of the receivership to such time as the judgment or judgments awarded under this subchapter are paid in full. Where there are judgments against a defendant which have been awarded to more than one plaintiff, the court shall have discretion to take any action necessary to efficiently operate a receivership in order to accomplish the purpose of collecting the judgments.
