Consider this situation:  The materialman, holder of a judgment against his customer (the subcontractor/lienor/transfer bond claimant), garnishes the "debt" owed to the subcontractor (judgment debtor) by the surety (garnishee), the debt being treated as an asset of the subcontractor.

Hardy,

Can you circulate this through ListServe for the Construction Law Committee to address?

Please review the attached case which just came out.  I would appreciate comments on the dicta at the end of the 2d paragraph as to the theory under which materialman to a lienor would have a claim under the transfer bond.

Anyone want to crawl out on that limb?

Regards,
