The judgment debtor/garnishee can file a motion requesting the lowering of a garnishment amount due to the fact that it constitutes a 'hardship' upon themselves and/or their immediate family. An example would be the maximum garnishment (25% of disposable income) granted against the head of household that results in she or he being unable to properly clothe, feed, house, provide medical care, etc. for his or her dependents.

*************************** From student loan GUY at www.studentloanfundamentals.com You can surely challenge the garnishment IF it is causing financial hardship... Here is how to stop the garnishment: Financial Hardship: You can challenge the garnishment by submitting what is called a "financial statement". Along side with the financial statement you would want to submit all of your bills and expenses. (Remember they consider credit cards, Timeshares, and such as luxuries) If you have medical bills or medical problems make sure that you include proof of this... Non-Financial Hardship: Negotiate a minimum payment that is a qualifying amount for the "Rehabilitation payment program". This is going to sound silly but hear me out.... MAKE PAYMENT ON TOP OF THE GARNISHMENT.... after 9 months your garnishment will cease and you will have most of your collection fees waived... Best of Luck... Mr. K Rogue student loan collector

However, if paying child support leaves an individual with insufficient income to cover basic living expenses or creates significant financial hardship that affects their ability to meet their essential needs, it may be considered as a part of their overall financial situation and hardship evidence. The specific circumstances and financial situation of the individual will be evaluated to determine if paying child support is causing extreme hardship.
