If after the time the garnishee is to make payment of funds or property held under a garnishment, the garnishee fails or refuses to pay or deliver property to the judgment creditor, the judgment creditor may file a motion and shall send a copy of the motion to the garnishee and the judgment debtor in the manner allowed under K.S.A. 61-2907, and amendments thereto.
