Dismissal of Garnishments: Because the core judgment was vacated, subsequent enforcement actions (such as bank garnishments filed by America First Credit Union against Hiru/Ameerex) were dismissed by the lower court.
The Bottom LineBecause the Superior Court set aside the default judgment due to a lack of proper notice/meritorious defenses rather than conducting a full trial on the merits, the underlying dispute was not barred by a "with prejudice" final ruling.
However, because America First Credit Union ultimately abandoned its appeal of that decision in August 2026, the Superior Court's ruling stands: Ameerex remains legally clear of the original judgment, and any hypothetical future attempt by AFCU to re-litigate the bad checks would require starting an entirely new lawsuit from scratch.
