The creditor would need to obtain a lawsuit judgment from the Texas court before wage garnishment would be allowed.

If a judgment has already been entered against the debtor in a different state, the judgment creditor can place a "foreign" judgment lien against property owned by the debtor.

You live in Texas your credit card company has sued you and you have to go to court what should you expect?

The plaintiff will in all probability win the lawsuit. The only viable defense against a lawsuit for debt is the ability to prove the debt is not valid. If the plaintiff wins, they will file for a writ of judgment and then execute the writ against the defendant's nonexempt property.

If they have a valid judgment against you in Oklahoma, absolutely. The Constitution requires states to give "full faith and credit" to the judgments of other states. Your creditor could simply go to a Texas court with a copy of the Oklahoma judgment, and get it enforced.


What does a credit card judgment mean?

The creditor has won a lawsuit judgment against the debtor(s) and can execute the judgment against any nonexempt property belonging to the debtor(s). The preferred method of judgment execution is wage garnishment followed by bank account levy, or seizure and sale of nonexempt property or a lien against real property. North Carolina, South Carolina, Pennsylvania and Texas do not allow wage garnishment for creditor debt. The exception is Texas where the court can grant wage garnishment if the debtor has no other property for which the judgment can be executed against. Married couples living in community property states are both usually responsible for debts incurred during the marriage regardless of which spouse is the account holder or borrower.
