Is Ohio non wage garnishment ongoing or one time only?

In Ohio a NON-wage garnishment is good for one shot. Of course, a creditor could file again (and again...). Filing a nonwage garn isn't done often since there are court fees and other costs to take into consideration, but I've seen it done more than once. A non-wage garnishment is used to attach monies earned by someone who isn't paid personal wages, like an independent contractor, or someone who works on commission. It is also used to attach bank accounts. Hope this helps, barbe

If there has been a garnishment and you owe money on a car you turned in can they come in and take personal home furnishings to cover debt if you are unable to pay?

Garnishment refers to monetary recovery usually in the form of wage or bank account garnishment. Creditors are awarded judgments when they prevail in a lawsuit, judgments can be executed in several ways, garnishment of wages or levy of bank accounts, liens against real property and the seizure and sale of non-exempt property belonging to a debtor. All states have a set of exemptions that can be used by the debtor to protect real and personal property. It is highly unlikely that a creditor would attempt to enforce a judgment against items such as household furnishings even if the state exemption did not fully cover the items. Exemptions that are used to protect property against creditor attachment relating to a judgment are the same as those used in bankruptcy. There are also federal non-bankruptcy exemptions that can be used in certain circumstances.

How many garnishments can one person have at a time?

Wage garnishments cannot run concurrently, each garnishment judgment must be satisfied before another can be enforced. Creditors however have other options for executing judgments, therefore if a wage garnishment order is active, a different creditor holding a judgment can use it for bank account levy, seizure and sale of non-exempt property and liens against real property belonging to the debtor(s). Texas, Pennsylvania, N.Carolina and S.Carolina do not allow wage garnishment for creditor debt. All wage garnishment for creditor debt only can be appealed by the debtor if he or she so chooses by using a "hardship" defense.
