The amount by which the weekly earnings exceed thirty times the federal minimum hourly wage. Mo. Rev. Stat. §525.030.

If you receive Disability Income from a Long Term Disability Insurance Policy can creditors garnish the monthly income from this policy?

The answer to your question is yes. If creditors can garnish your wages if you were working, then they can garnish the income you receive from your disability provider as well. The same procedures they would have to go through to garnish your wages from your employer, they would go through the disability company (filing court documents). Unfortunately, creditors consider any income you receive, working or not, as income.


If you are garnish and than released paid in full can they garnish you more for the same thing?

Once a debt has been paid in full, creditors cannot garnish your wages again for the same debt. Garnishment typically requires a court order, and if the debt is satisfied, they have no legal basis to pursue further garnishment. However, if there are multiple debts, creditors may still seek to garnish wages for any outstanding amounts owed. Always consult a legal professional for specific situations.
