Mc 52 Form PDF Details

The MC 52 form stands as a crucial legal document within the Michigan judicial system, designed specifically for the purpose of garnishing income tax refunds or credits. It serves as a bridge between judgment creditors, the court, and the garnishee, facilitating the redirection of a debtor’s state tax refund or credit to satisfy outstanding judgments. The form meticulously structures the garnishment process through various stages, beginning with a detailed request from the plaintiff or their attorney, to the issuance of the writ by the court, and finally, its execution against the garnishee, typically the Michigan Department of Treasury. Not only does it set in motion a series of legal obligations for all parties involved, including the need for a nominal fee, timely service of the writ, and filing of necessary disclosures, but it also outlines explicit instructions for defendants, providing a finite window to contest the garnishment. Moreover, garnishees are given clear directives concerning the interception and allocation of funds, underscoring the form’s comprehensive role in ensuring the fulfillment of judicial judgments through tax refunds or credits. The MC 52 form embodies a critical procedural element in the enforcement of financial judgments, underscoring the interplay between legal rights and fiscal responsibilities in the realm of civil litigation.
