In Georgia can a judgment creditor take money from your bank account?
Yes. A bank account can be levied by the judgment creditor even if the account is jointly held. If the account is joint and only one of the account holder's is the named judgment debtor, the non debtor account holder must submit proof to the court as to the amount of funds belonging to them in order to protect those funds from being seized. When it concerns such joint account the court will generally freeze the account and allow the non debtor a specified amount of time to claim his or her exempt funds that are in the account.

If I sign an acknowledgement of assignment of judgment am I giving up my right to collect?
If you are the 'creditor' of judgment and you sign for a third party to collect, then YES, your right to collect is given up. Because once that is signed you just signed over your judgment over to the third party, and it is considered THEIR judgment now. BUT you will still get your money judgment from the third party.

If the plaintiff (that is the person who filed the law suit) wins (i.e. is awarded a judgment), then they can attempt to collect the money that they were awarded by the Court.

When a creditor levies your accounts and does not get all the money owed can they garnish your wages in the State of Pennsylvania?
Pennsylvania does not allow wage garnishment for creditor debt. However, the judgment creditor can renew the bank levy and continue to attach the account until the debt is paid or until the judgment levy becomes invalid. The debtor who has his or her account levied, should research all the state, (and in some cases federal) statutes/ laws concerning the action to determine if the judgment levy is, indeed valid.
You purchased a timeshare vaca pkg and am in over your head What happens if you allow it to go to foreclosure and can they attach to my paycheck?
They will receive a judgment on the property and can collect the money any way they want, including garnishing your wages, checking and savings account. So if you ever paid with a check they have your information and can get a court order to remove all the money from your account. If you have a money deposited on the bank, there's a chance that they will collect it through a court order. I'm sure they will find ways to know about your bank accounts so that they can collect through it. They do this legally with a court order. Off course, they will seize your bank account as a way to get a payment.
