SB 835 Missouri Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Modifies provisions relating to court procedures

SB 835 modifies legal procedures for debt collection in civil court cases, specifically addressing attachment (freezing assets before trial), execution (seizing property after a judgment), and garnishment (withholding wages or bank funds). The bill directly affects creditors seeking to collect debts and debtors facing these collection actions. However, the official abstract provides no specific details on the proposed changes to these procedures, and the bill is still in early stages (prefiled, with a committee hearing scheduled). Without concrete provisions outlined in the provided context, a summary of specific mechanisms or policy changes cannot be accurately generated.
