The creditor or CA must file a law suit and get a judgement before they can seize assets. However, there is one exception, if the creditor can convince a judge that the debtor will remove money from the bank account in order to avoid paying a debt, the account can be frozen. They can't touch the money until after they get a judgement, but neither can you. Texas seems to be the state where I have heard of this tactic.
If you are served with a summons and you do not answer or show up at the appointed time, the CA gets a judgement by default.
