The computer-services outfit determined to collect on a federal court judgment of $466,310 against Manchester Financial Bank, a putative venture of U-T San Diego owner Douglas Manchester, is still trying. The financial institution never got off the ground, but the creditors sued after Manchester and company refused to pay for work done prior to the publisher’s pulling the plug. A federal judge in Texas, upheld by an appeals court last April, told the Manchester group to come up with the money, and the chase has been on ever since. The latest move came a week ago Tuesday when U.S. magistrate judge David Bartick ordered Manchester second-in-command Richard V. Gibbons to show up for a March 11 debtors exam “for the purpose of determining the financial state and affairs of and what property or assets Manchester Financial Bank owns in this district that may be subjected to execution or garnishment toward satisfaction of the judgment rendered against Manchester Financial Bank on March 22, 2013.”
