Is it legal for a bank not to give access to my safety deposit box when the restraining order was already lifted?

We have a lot of problems with banks either doing what they're supposed to or not doing what they're supposed to. In my experience, some banks 'freeze' a bank account after garnishment - which they're not supposed to do under Nevada Law and would result in some unhappy guy yelling at me on the phone. Sometimes, we would issue process and they'd refuse to turn it over (thinking California Law is my best guess), until I threaten sanctions by the court in Nevada. So why is really within the bank's internal processes. Usually you'd need to speak to a bank manager. And honestly, you may need to pay an attorney a little money to go yell at them. Don't be surprised if they won't listen to you. Attorneys have a hard enough time getting compliance with a court order and reading it aloud to the bank manager. Disclaimer: this is not all banks, and not all branches. Some are very courteous, prompt, and compliant.

The lifting of the restraining order only applied to the social security funds and pension funds that were exempt. The safety deposit box is still under a restraining order because the contents are not exempt.
