Can Attachment of earning order re-issued ?..

HI All,

I am asking this to give some help to a friend of mine.

He got a CCJ against Debtor when defendant ddnt pay his money received as a loan.

So friend applied for an Attachment of earning order but defendant's employer returned forms to court saying defendant left job in November 2017.

Then friend got defendant's home address but this time , he applied for an Order to obtain Information and court issued today. Friend yet needs to deliver personally to the defendant.
In the mean time, friend needs to know ;

1. Can he ask the court to re-issue the Attachment of earning order to defendant as his home address now known ? Then , friend hope ,defendant could tell the court about his new employment details .

2. if so can he request the court to Hold or Cancel the order to obtain information ?

please advise..

  • My understanding is that an attachment of earnings is sent to the employer not the defendant.
    Second point no and no IMO.

    If the friend finds out about any new employment he can ask for a new order.
  • Thanks for reply.
    I dont think defendant has any assets . But according to friend, he needs to first try to get information about defendant's jobs and assets. So he needs to deliver the order to obtain information personally to defendant. He asked me to give the court order to defendant personally.
    Can I deliver the order on behalf of my friend ?
    If I deliver , then what should friend do ?
    How to inform court that it has been delivered ?
    Should I give any evidence ?
  • Go back to the court and ask.
    You cannot deliver the order IMO.
