Full text

(a) On application by a judgment creditor of a member of a limited liability company or of a member's transferee, a court having jurisdiction may charge the distributional interest of the judgment debtor to satisfy the judgment. The court may appoint a receiver of the share of the distributions due or to become due to the judgment debtor and make all other orders, directions, accounts, and inquiries the judgment debtor might have made or which the circumstances may require to give effect to the charging order. (b) A charging order constitutes a lien on the judgment debtor's distributional interest. The court may order a foreclosure of a lien on a distributional interest subject to the charging order at any time. A purchaser at the foreclosure sale has the rights of a transferee. (c) At any time before foreclosure, a distributional interest in a limited liability company which is charged may be redeemed: (1) by the judgment debtor; (2) with property other than the company's property, by one or more of the other members; or (3) with the company's property, but only if permitted by the operating agreement. (d) This chapter does not affect a member's right under exemption laws with respect to the member's distributional interest in a limited liability company. (e) This section provides the exclusive remedy by which a judgment creditor of a member or a transferee may satisfy a judgment out of the judgment debtor's distributional interest in a limited liability company.
