Maybe. Federal or state law determines the percentage of wage garnishment.
Under federal law the maximum garnishment is 25% or 30 x minimum wage/$382.50 with the first $217.50 of disposable income being exempt.
If the state where the garnishee resides has a garnishment percentage less than the federal allowance, (many do), that will be the maximum amount subject to garnishment.
