Wage garnishment may occur in a situation where an individual has accrued a significant amount of debt, and consistently missed the scheduled payment deadlines. The company seeking payment may initiate legal action against the individual with delinquent payments, and if successful garnish that persons wages in order to pay the debt he/she owes.
