Generally, Yes, of course. that's exactly what garnishments are used for.
The judgment you know is a court order saying you do owe and must pay. Your in direct defiance of the law by not doing so. It would seem you really have no right to even suggest you shouldn't be forced to pay all that is due, anyway possible for them to get it. And yes, you will end up paying all their costs of collecting it...which is also fair.
At present four U.S. states - North Carolina, Pennsylvania, South Carolina and Texas - do not allow wage garnishment at all except for debts related to taxes, child support, federally guaranteed student loans, and court-ordered fines or restitution for a crime the debtor committed. Normally the maximum is 25% of wages.
Yes
If there is a default judgment against you, you will be responsible for the charges. Your wages could be garnished if you do not pay or set up a payment arrangement.
men
yup
Only a court can enter a judgment for wage garnishment. If you have some kind of child custody or alimony order, you can petition the court for garnishment based on non-payment. If you think she just owes you money, you have to sue her, she has to subsequently default of a judgment against her and then the court can order her wages to be garnished.
Yes.
If the husband was not liable for the debt, then his wages cannot be garnished to collect on the judgment. The judgment is against the person who incurred the debt.
Not if he did not cosign on the loans.
In Michigan, deficiency judgments can be used to garnish wages if a lender obtains a court order allowing them to do so. This means that if there is a foreclosure or repossession, and the sale of the property or asset does not cover the full amount owed, the lender can pursue a deficiency judgment to collect the remaining debt, including through wage garnishment.
No.
Yes, you have to get a judgement first.
depending on the state you live in yes. If the bank forecloses and they get a default judgment against you, they can garnish your wages. Not in Texas though. There are other states that don't allow wage garnishment, except on federal debt
Yes it can if the loan company taKES it to court and gets a judgment against you, then by all means they can take your taxes, pay, etc.
