Best Answer

Methods for collecting a judgment are the levy of bank accounts, seizure and sale of non exempt property belonging to the judgment debtor, or a lien against real property belonging to the debtor, in some cases including the debtor's share of property that is jointly owned. If none of the above methods are viable in enforcement of the judgment the judgment creditor can obtain a wage garnishment. Also, in rare cases the judgment creditor can request the court to order a forced sale of real property to satisfy the debt owed.

Actually, in SC the only debt that they can garnish wages for is child support.
