How do you activate a frozen bank account?

Bank Accounts are frozen by bank authorities or law enforcement agencies when they sense some illegal or suspicious activity in the account. In such a case, you will be able to find out the details from the bank. You need to provide proof that nothing illegal happened in your account and once you provide satisfactory information your account will be re-activated. Bank accounts are also frozen by a court order subsequent to a judgment in favor of a plaintiff in a civil lawsuit. You must satisfy the judgment in order to obtain a release of your account and the plaintiff must make a return to the court stating that the judgment has been satisfied. The satisfaction of judgment must then be served to the bank.
