712. Seizure makes the garnishee the custodian of the property seized.

On the bailiff’s request or on the court clerk’s order, the garnishee is required to deliver the debtor’s property that is in the garnishee’s possession to the bailiff. The garnishee is also required to give the bailiff, on request, all relevant documents relating to the garnishee’s debt toward the debtor. In addition, on the seizing creditor’s or the bailiff’s express request, the garnishee is required to submit to an examination to complete the garnishee’s declaration, as if it were a post-judgment examination.
