Which proceeding involves a debtor answering questions under oath about personal and real estate?

• A. Summons to Answer Interrogatories
• B. Subpoena for Witness
• C. Writ
• D. Attachment

Answer: (A)

Interrogatories are written questions that must be answered under oath as part of the discovery process. A debtor is typically required to respond to these questions, including inquiries about personal assets and real estate, in writing and under oath. The mechanism that compels this sworn response is a summons to answer interrogatories. The other options involve different actions: a subpoena for a witness asks someone to appear and testify (not just answer written questions about assets), a writ is a general court order directing action, and an attachment is a seizure of property to secure a claim.
