    Sec. 12-718. Powers of court. If the garnishee has in his or her possession, custody or control any property belonging to the defendant or which he or she is obligated to deliver to the defendant, with or without condition, the court may enter all proper orders for the delivery thereof to the proper officer, the sale or disposition of the same, and the discharging of any lien thereon, and may authorize the garnishee to collect any indebtedness or to sell any other property and account for the proceeds. The court, when necessary to further the purposes and provisions of Part 7 of Article XII of this Act, may compel the judgment debtor to do or to refrain from doing any specific act or deed; or the court may appoint a receiver to collect any indebtedness or to take possession, sell or otherwise dispose of any other property, and enter all orders in regard thereto which are necessary and equitable between the parties.
