In Missouri, a spouse's wages generally cannot be garnished for a debt that solely belongs to the other spouse. Wage garnishment typically applies to the individual who incurred the debt. However, if the debt is a joint obligation or if the couple resides in a community property state (which Missouri is not), there may be exceptions. It's essential to consult a legal professional for specific circumstances.
