Inverultra, S.A. v. Hon. Steven A. Wilson
Annotate this CaseA New York Supreme Court awarded Inverultra, S.A., a Panamanian company, a $1.8 million judgment against three Honduran companies, including Parque Industrial Bufalo, S.A. de C.V. (ZIP Bufalo). Inverultra registered its New York judgment in the Warren Circuit Court, the home of Union Underwear, Inc. (Union). Union was the parent corporation of a company that leased commercial property from ZIP Bufalo. Inverultra filed in the Warren Circuit Court an affidavit for a writ of garnishment against Union seeking an order of garnishment requiring Union to hold any funds due to ZIP Bufalo. Inverulta then sought discovery from Union and Zip Bufalo. The trial court granted Union’s request for a protective order and denied Inverulta’s motion to compel discovery from ZIP Bufalo. Inverulta brought this action under Ky. R. Civ. P. 81 seeking a writ in the nature of mandamus to lift the prohibitions against discovery on Union and ZIP Bufalo. The court of appeals denied relief. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that Inverulta did not meet any of the conditions requisite for Rule 81 relief and was thus not eligible for a writ of mandamus or prohibition.
