Practice question
A company owes Ana for office supplies and Ben for unrelated repair work. Neither claims the other’s receivable or the same fund. Does having two creditors alone establish interpleader?
- Yes, two creditors always suffice.
- Yes, if the debtor prefers one lawsuit.
- No; the required competing claims to the same subject matter are absent on these facts.
- Yes, because both debts are monetary.
- No; interpleader never concerns money.
