No. Florida law pertaining to wage garnishment is an exercise in common sense. The first $500 of weekly income by the head of household is exempt from garnishment. (Head of household is defined as the person who provides more than half the family income.) In order for any garnishment of wages, the head of household must agree in writing to allow the garnishment, if the person does not agree ALL wages are exempt,(here's where common sense plays a part). However, you must file an affidavit with the court declaring the head of household exemption or the wages will not be protected. Contact the court clerk or court administrator in the county or city in which you reside to find out the proper procedure.
