In the case of a joint account in the name of two or more persons, if only one of them is the judgement debtor ,the joint account cannot be attached. But if both or all the joint account holders are judgment debtors, the account can be attached. But the reverse is possible. If the debt is jointly taken by two or more persons, the individual accounts in the banks maybe attached.
