The Magistrate Court handles thousands of civil lawsuits each year, most resulting in judgments against one party or the other. One of the most-asked questions we hear from winning parties is, “How do I get my money?”
In today’s struggling economy, we want county citizens to get their money. And while we must remain neutral and cannot give legal advice, the court does have some self-help tools available. One of those tools is a set of forms and instructions we have developed for garnishment proceedings.
A garnishment action is one of the primary tools used to collect unpaid judgments. This court receives an average of 360 new garnishment cases per year, resulting in about 580 disbursals, or payments to judgment creditors, per year.

Ozment found in Wyoming
By ROBERT LEE LONG - Community Editor - www.desototimes.com - January 31, 2012
Pardoned killer tries to "run over" investigators
Convicted killer Joseph Ozment was discovered at a motel in Laramie, Wyoming Sunday and was served a summons to appear back in a Mississippi court on Friday.
According to District Attorney John Champion, Ozment attempted to avoid process servers and nearly ran over them in his girlfriend's Mercedes Benz.
"He attempted to run over the two Attorney General's investigators as they attempted to serve him," Champion said.
Champion said Ozment later turned up on foot and denied he had been in the car when it swerved at the process servers.
Any potential charges stemming from endangerment of sworn officers is being put on hold however, in order that Ozment appear in Jackson this Friday without further delay at a hearing convened by Circuit Judge Tomie Green.
Ozment must also stay in daily contact with authorities on his whereabouts, according to a court order issued by Green.

Lindsay Lohan Served Again
laist.com - January 17, 2012
Lindsay Lohan continues to behave and meet the terms of her probation stemming from her DUI and necklace theft, but during a probation progress meeting this morning, Lohan faced yet another challenge. The 25-year-old starlet got served by a process server hired by a delusional man who claims Lohan might be a prostitute.
TMZ obtained a copy of the suit filed in L.A. County Superior Court, which is posted online, and describes it as "essentially 12 pages of incomplete, incoherent gibberish" filed by Thomas A. Green, a man who claims to be a former U.S. Marine and to have played a role in the killing of Osama bin Laden.
