And, with the garnishee example, Illinois plaintiff
could have sought relief in a Wisconsin court and gotten a judgment based upon the Illinois judgment and sought execution on same. If they had done so, you would not have been able to ignore said process from said Wisconsin court. The plaintiff just did not want to deal with the bullshit . . .
