What are the Indiana State guidelines qualifying someone as "collection proof"?

Question

I'm considering opening a checking account with my financial aid money from school. However, I have a few thousand dollar judgement against me, and I don't want them coming after the money in my new checking account. Even though I will be depositing a few thousand in the new bank account, I need it to live on for the next 5 months. I'm really not trying to evade the judgement, or hide my assets, just go to school. I do plan on paying the judgement eventually.

My only other assets are a used vehicle which kelly blue book lists at $4500 for private sale value.

I'm trying to find the exact guidelines which will ensure my checking account is collection proof, but I've had no luck locating such information online.

Any Indiana law gurus out there that could help me out would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for reading!

* Additional Detail *

I know that there are dollar limit amounts of like $4000 or $6000 that are untouchable no matter what. I found some websites listing explicit law for certain states, but not for Indiana. I'm looking for EXACT LAW INFORMATION for INDIANA ONLY.

Thanks again

Answer 1

If you open a bank account, they can take it. Social Security or disability payments are about the only judgment proof income.

They might not find your checking account if it isn't interest bearing. But any bank account that pays interest will definitely be attached.

Answer 2

precisely. that's like Block Watch people coming outdoors and tattling on every person who could dare play outdoors on their block. The TOS are intentionally obscure so as that the Yahoo! workers can use discretion and get rid of questions that could obey the letter of the TOS yet not the point. Frankly, something is a contravention in case you squint and tilt your head a touch. If maximum persons choose for to be waiting to ask questions, yet purely some choose for to be vigilante tattletales and the tattletales are prevailing, then that's not community moderation. that's bullying. Yahoo! has on no account been against bullying. i've got in many cases asked for help with bullying, and that i've got seen my acquaintances ask for help besides. i've got even seen my own acquaintances bully others, regrettably. no remember what happens, Yahoo! accepts (and as a result condones) the bullying. EDIT: The reporting subject isn't purely an R&S phenomenon. that's around the board. R&S is without doubt one in all the busiest class, so that's felt extra durable right here, however the journalists are everywhere. they're concentrated in busy categories. you could actually nevertheless placed up stupid questions in low-use categories, yet there are extra violations everywhere. i've got been violated in each single place.
