It's not called a lien. A lien is against real property. I believe you are talking about a levy. You have to know what bank the account is drawn on and then file the appropriate paperwork with the court to enforce the judgment and freeze the account.

South Carolina seceded because they believed that the institution of slavery was in peril. I believe the Civil War was about states rights - that is, the states rights to maintain slavery. South Carolina was complaining about the northern states violating the Constitution by not enforcing the Fugitive Slave Act. The union felt that South Carolina was independent and did not want slavery so now they are in war.

What does a credit card judgment mean?
The creditor has won a lawsuit judgment against the debtor(s) and can execute the judgment against any nonexempt property belonging to the debtor(s). The preferred method of judgment execution is wage garnishment followed by bank account levy, or seizure and sale of nonexempt property or a lien against real property. North Carolina, South Carolina, Pennsylvania and Texas do not allow wage garnishment for creditor debt. The exception is Texas where the court can grant wage garnishment if the debtor has no other property for which the judgment can be executed against.
