Under the full faith and credit law the judgment creditor (holder) can obtain an exemplified copy of the judgment from the clerk of the court in the district where the judgment was awarded.The judgment holder then sends the document(s) to the clerk of the court's office in the county/city and state where the judgment debtor resides. The judgment will then be executed in the manner stated, (garnishment, lien, bank account levy, etc.).Texas does allow bank account levies by judgment creditors.

How many judgments are allowed on one bank account?

Unless the bank account was the subject of a lawsuit, there are no "judgments" on the bank account. There are levies that result from unpaid judgments that have had "executions" issued authorizing the attachment of assets of the judgment debtor. There is no maximum number of attachments, although at some point the attachments will exceed the money in the account and those will not be considered "secured" by the attachments. Bankruptcy will allow you to strip away all the unsecured attachments and if you have enough exemptions to cover the balance in the account, you may be able to strip away all or most of the other attachments.
