On application by a judgment creditor of a partner or transferee, a court may enter a charging order against the transferable interest of the judgment debtor for the unsatisfied amount of the judgment. A charging order constitutes a lien on a judgment debtor's transferable interest and requires the limited partnership to pay over to the person to which the charging order was issued any distribution that otherwise would be paid to the judgment debtor.
To the extent necessary to effectuate the collection of distributions pursuant to a charging order in effect under subsection (a), the court may:
Appoint a receiver of the distributions subject to the charging order, with the power to make all inquiries the judgment debtor might have made; and
Make all other orders necessary to give effect to the charging order.
The partner or transferee whose transferable interest is subject to a charging order under subsection (a) may extinguish the charging order by satisfying the judgment and filing a certified copy of the satisfaction with the court that issued the charging order.
This chapter does not deprive any partner or transferee of the benefit of any exemption law applicable to the transferable interest of the partner or transferee.
This section provides the exclusive remedy by which a person, other than the partnership itself, seeking in the capacity of a judgment creditor to enforce a judgment against a partner or transferee may satisfy the judgment from the judgment debtor's transferable interest.
