Hans Wang Jul 2, 2009:
Agree I've read over the Norwegian definition in the link in your post and it looks right :-)
Svein Hartwig Djaerff Jul 2, 2009:
Third person Partly agree, if wage garnishment the special term is "utleggstrekk", but we do not have a special term for garnishment in other assets in the position of others. I will add this term too.
Hans Wang Jul 2, 2009:
Third person requirement Garnishment involves something that belongs to the debtor in the possession of a third person. In terms of wages, for example, this third person is the debtor's employer. It does not sound like utlegg or utleggspant involves a third person, it sounds like it is a lien against property aquired with the help of the Government.

utlegg, utleggspant, utleggstrekk

Begrepet er beslektet med uttrykket utpantning, som det kalles når det offentlige tar pant i skyldnerens eiendeler etter lignende regler, men uten nødvendigvis amsmannens eller namsrettens hjelp.

Definition from Wikipedia:
Utlegg eller utleggspant er sikkerhet for et pengekrav som stiftes ved myndighetenes hjelp. Utlegg innebærer at kreditor får panterett i en eller flere av debitors eiendeler, noe som gir grunnlag for tvangsfullbyrdelse. For at utlegg skal kunne gis kreves at det foreligger tvangsgrunnlag. <br />Utleggstrekk er utlegg i lønnstilgodehavender hos arbeidsgiver.

Example sentences:
Utlegg er et ledd i tvangsinndrivelse av pengekrav. Har noen penger til gode og ikke får oppgjør, kan kravet tvangsinndrives. Utlegg er et viktig instrument i tvangsinndrivelsen. Utlegg innebærer at den som har penger til gode, får sikkerhet i skyldnerens eiendeler eller oppgjør via trekk i utestående krav skyldneren har. (Paragrafen)
Utleggstrekk er en felles betegnelse for trekk arbeidsgiver er blitt pålagt å trekke i arbeidstakers lønn. (Kunnskapssenteret)
