The answer to that question is that the Plaintiffs (all of them) are liable "jointly and severly". That effectively means that each Plaintiff is liable for the full amount. The Defendant can choose to go to the bank of any of the Plaintiff and tell them to freeze the amount (after having a judgment). Unless said Plaintiff can vacate the judgment, Ms. Foster will be cut a check by the bank in 30 days.
In Maryland, "writ of garnishment" is a fairly straight forward process. I have done it. They even have pre-printed forms that you can fill out. It costs $25 per garnishee in court costs (plus the cost of the process server or Sheriff). You go to the bank and serve it on any officer (i.e. Branch Manager). They freeze the account within a day or so (up to the amount of the judgment) and unless the judgment is vacated, mail you the check after waiting the mandatory 30 days. The Garnishee (bank) also has to let the Court know how much money they sent you.
So, the simple answer is that *all* of the Plaintiffs are liable for the full amount. It is strictly up to Ms. Foster which Plaintiff she hates the most.;)
