THIS VIDEOTAPE FOCUSES ON THE ROLE OF THE ENFORCEMENT OFFICER IN EXECUTING THE CIVIL ORDERS OF THE COURT - IN THIS CASE, A BUSINESS LEVY - THIS TAPE IS BASED ON CALIFORNIA LAW AND MAY NOT APPLY TO OTHER STATES.
Abstract
THE VIEWER SEES THAT A 'BUSINESS LEVY', WHILE AN EFFECTIVE MEANS FOR SATISFYING A CIVIL JUDGMENT, IS NOT A SIMPLE PROCEDURE. AS THE MARSHALS DEMONSTRATE, AN EFFECTIVE BUSINESS LEVY REQUIRES A SPECIFIC KNOWLEDGE OF LAW AND PROCEDURE, AS WELL AS SKILL IN KNOWING HOW TO DEAL CALMLY WITH PEOPLE IN STRESS SITUATIONS. HIGHLIGHTS OF THE PROGRAM INCLUDE: THE PURPOSE AND REQUIREMENTS OF A BUSINESS LEVY; THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A 'TILL TAP', A LEVY ON THE PROCEEDS OF A DAY'S BUSINESS, AND LEVY ON THE STOCK OF A BUSINESS; AND THE VARIETY OF ORDERS, NOTICES, AND RECEIPTS THAT ARE REQUIRED DURING THE COURSE OF A BUSINESS LEVY. THIS TAPE IS USEFUL FOR BOTH PRE-SERVICE AND IN-SERVICE TRAINING OF MARSHAL'S AND SHERIFF'S DEPUTIES INVOLVED IN THE SERVICE AND ENFORCEMENT OF COURT ORDERS. FOR THE COMPLETE SET OF THE SKYLINE COLLEGE COURT SUPPORT PERSONNEL PROJECT VIDEOTAPES, SEE NCJ-35823 THROUGH 35825, 36202-28, 36230, AND 36231. (AUTHOR ABSTRACT)
