Income Garnishment

They can only garnish your wages if they took you to court and a judge ordered the garnishment via a judgement. The lender first off must be licensed to be able to take action against you in court. But the only entity who can garnish your wages without a court order is the federal government. No matter what you signed there must be due process. Hope this helps.

Yes they can.

Yes, if they file suit and are awarded a judgment the judgment can be executed as a wage garnishment.

Yes, in most cases such such action is possible by a judgment creditor.

The percentage of garnishment is the same regardless of the garnishee's status. The maximum garnishment if 25% of disposable income, If the debtor makes less than $290 per week that amount is exempt from attachment. If the debtor makes more than stated weekly amount $217.50 is exempt from garnishment.

In addition if the garnishment law of the state where the debtor resides is less than the federal allowance of 25% the lower percentage is used.

Yes.

If they have been legally garnished (the garnishment was sanctioned by a court) then they will not be returned.

Yes. Any person or organization that you owe a debt to and have not paid that debt can get a court ordered garnishment for any income that you have.

The first thing the garnishee should do is determine if it was a wrongful garnishment. In general garnishment writs can be renewed every thirty days. The purpose being the garnisher is legally allowed to recover all the monies owed even if it requires multiple garnishment action. The creditor/garnisher does not need to repeat the entire court procedure each time, but can refile the original garnishment order with the court and then activate it.

If the order was for a single garnishment and the garnisher executed it multiple times, the garnisher and the bank/financial institution is in error and the funds seized should be reimbursed to the account holder/garnishee. However, to accomplish this the garnishee has to file suit with the court and provide documentation that such a thing occurred.

None.

Yes, I do it all the time. Just make sure you sign the check and put it in the right direction and it will automatically process your check and the money should be available

as soon as you choose which account you would like your money to go into. However, it depends on your bank as well.

Basically, until the debt is paid. In some U.S. states the garnishment order must be renewed after a specific time, in most an writ of garnishment will continue in the debt is paid in full.

no

You really cant unless they signed a agreement saying they were just holding it for you for some reason. The Poliece would ask the question "why would you do that?" With cash there just is no record of anything. Unless you could get them to admit they took it with malous intent on a recorder. But even then they have no knowledge of being recorded. So it will not stand up in court. Why did you give them cash anyway?

No.

In most places, no. Not unless it was part of the signed agreement previous to your notice.

Yes...PLS check the status of limitations in California. Each states may vary.

Credit cards are not assets, there's nothing to garnish from them.

Yes, the North Carolina Department of Revenue can garnish retirement income to satisfy unpaid taxes. They have the authority to collect delinquent taxes by garnishing wages, bank accounts, and other sources of income, including retirement income. However, there are certain exemptions and limitations on the amount that can be garnished from retirement income.

No, it can not. however, if you owe money for back child support, to the state you live in and the Government, then you're on the hook.

You can make deposit into a checking or savings account via the ATM. Also most banks allow the customer to transfer funds from one account to another by using ab ATM. The instructions for making any type of transactions are displayed on the ATM screen in understandable (hopefully) directives.

No. Wages may only be garnished by government entities in the state of Oklahoma. However, if the payday loan company took the time to obtain a judgement against the debtor, that judgement may be enforced through garnishing (but through the courts, not by the payday loan providers).

One can, however, have multiple government agencies garnishing wages at the same time.
