I have a friend who woke up this morning and found her checking account had been completely drained. Previously she had a balance of $1,300.00 and today she had a balance of $1.00!!!! The bank told her they recieved a "notice of levy" and had to take her money!!! I didn't get the details yet (she was too upset to talk). Is this normal?? Can this really happen? I just opened a checking account again, and now i'm worried. Antone ever heard of these bank levy's?Reason for Editing (Minimum 15 Characters)

I was basically trying to say that State Governments do not mess around when you owe them taxes. They move quickly to get all their cash.Reason for Editing (Minimum 15 Characters)

I thought the state. or whomever, had to get a court order every time they levy an account. So, if they don't get the whole amount of the levy at that time, they have to go back to the courts to get another levy assignment to get the rest. Or, to dip into the account again. For example, if the amount owed is $4000, and the account only has $2500, they only get $2499 from that levy. To get the remaining amount, they have to go back to the courts to get another court order to send to the bank. Am I wrong?I'm all right, Jack.

Every time we would get a levy order when i was working at the bank, it would be from the courts. And, it was usually the state that had it done because of back taxes owed. If it's a personal one, I don't know. We never saw those.I'm all right, Jack. Keep your hands off of my stack! - Pink Floyd Reason for Editing (Minimum 15 Characters)

I have lived in FL for 3 years only to find out the other day that my BOA account had been levied. The question is:
I was sued in NY by a credit card Co in 06 and I have been a resident in FL since 05. The judgement went in the Credit Card Co favor (I knew nothing of this because everything was being sent to my NY old address). A year and 1/2 later hence the levy. I did open the BOA account in NY. Should that make a difference since under FL statue 222.2 they can not levy my account if I am a resident, and head of househould(I live by myself).
SOMEONE, PLEASE HELP ME!!!Reason for Editing (Minimum 15 Characters)

Contact the judge that issued the order [b]immediately[/b]! You may just be able to get the judgement vacated due to improper service. It would very likely be worth your $$$ to consult an attorney. NY law is very different frm almost anyplace I've ever been.[url=http://unclewulf.wordpress.com/">Wulfisms: my blog
