Basically, bankruptcy uses all your assets to pay all your debts.
Under the protection of the BK, you may be able to not have the garnishment taken, but that is only because everything will be used to pay and clear all your debts.
You MUST include all of your debts and all of your assets in the filing. You do not and cannot pick and chose what is involved. All are given priorities, some of each may be exempt from seizure or discharge.
You really didn't think you could just go BK on something, have the debt discharged and simply keep everything else you want, did you?
