You must go to the United States Bankruptcy Court for the district in which you live. This is a federal court. State courts do not handle bankruptcies.

Cause usually when you file for bankruptcy after you have filled out all the paperwork and paid the court fees to file for the Bankruptcy and it is now your court date. The judge will say your name, list all the creditiors youowed and how much. then he grants the bankruptcy- ** therefore they would not be able to garnish your wages.
