Probably not bc of an incorrect address although your description of the chain of events might give rise to setting aside all those asset transfers as fraudulent.

Yes. Those are fraudulent transfers by the debtor that can be set aside.

You must include both husband and wife in your suit or it will fail.
The defendant/ debtor has avoided bank garnishments so far but I have been notified that they have a Zelle, Venmo and Cashapp. Can I finally garnished their account via this method or are there any issues involving this?

Yes. You can use the same forms as you would for a bank but send the form to their central accounting centers, the addresses of which you should easily find online.

The transfers you described are post judgment snd should be easily set aside as fraudulent transfers. You can ask the court in which you obtained judgment to set them aside.
I won a judgment on a debtor and she completely zeroed out her bank account. This was made known when I attempted a Writ of Garnishment on her bank account that recently failed. She uses a Cashapp for her business. Is it possible to file a Writ of Garnishment on her Cashapp, Venmo or Zelle?

You cannot garnish the sisters account if you do not have a judgment against her.

Small Claim/ Civil Garnishment: If a creditor gets a judgment against a garnishee for failure to comply (not filing a garnishee answer), and the garnishee pays judgment in full, Can the garnishee then go after the Debtor for these funds?
answered on Jul 26, 2022
It's possible. The proper thing to do when paying off a Court-ordered debt is to have the judgment creditor sign a Satisfaction of Judgment and file it with the Court.
That said, if you have a record you made the payment, you should notify the Court right away that you have paid it and... View More

No. You're not a party. You can't file something in a case in which you are not a party. Further, writing a judge directly is not allowed. Judges can only communicate with parties when both parties are present.
