McWethy v. Elansari
this case Court affirm trial court orders which permitted a judgment creditor to renew his default judgment and authorized a receiver to seize documents and other evidence demonstrating the judgment debtor owned a substantial interest in two named corporations.
Contrary to the arguments of the judgment debtors and corporations, the judgment which the trial court renewed was valid. Prior to entry of the judgment the trial court conducted a thorough prove-up hearing at which the judgment creditor provided evidence of each element of damage alleged in the underlying complaint. Moreover, contrary to the judgment creditor's argument, the judgment did not exceed the amount alleged in the complaint.
