This is not likely. Garnishment will occur, but some states put a cap on the amount that can legally be taken by an order of garnishment, and some work child support and other court ordered payments into that percentage. For instance, if you make $1,000.00 per week net, and you pay $200 in child support that is taken from your pay directly, and the state caps the percentage of allowable garnishment at 25%, the most anyone will get from an order of garnishment is $50.
