REQUEST FOR DEFAULT JUDGMENT
The plaintiff must have a judgment against the defendant before a garnishment can be filed. The judgment must also be a Georgia judgment (either local courts of federal). Other states' judgments will have to be domesticated (made a Georgia judgment). A judgment is valid for seven years. It can be renewed every seven years. - http://fultonstate.org/state_garnishment.php
If the defendant does not answer your complaint or does not come to court, you may get a judgment without having to go to trial. This is called a default judgment and should be for the full amount of your claim plus court costs. PDF
You may end up going to court if you request monies other than those listed from your dispossessory. Connect2Court will auto populate monies from your dispossessory. Please enter in all other fields.
