Chapter 26

Form 26-4

A copy of the interrogatories should be attached to this form. For pattern interrogatories, see forms 26-5 (individual debtor—short form), 26-6 (corporate debtor—short form), 26-7 (individual debtor—long form), and 26-8 (corporate debtor—long form) in this chapter. If the defendant is a corporation or other entity, the interrogatories should be addressed to a named individual, employee, or agent under the control of the entity, so that if a contempt order is issued the individual may be more easily held in contempt. See section 26.4:3.

The interrogatories should be addressed to the debtor through his attorney if he is represented by one. If the defendant is not represented, the notice should be sent directly to him, addressed “To: [name of defendant], Defendant.” If it is unclear whether the judgment debtor is still represented, the interroga­tories should be served on both the debtor and his attorney to ensure proper service (see section 26.4:2).
