Best Answer

If it is a valid judgment garnishment there isn't an alternative unless the garenishment amount constitutes a hardship on the garnishee and/or their dependents. If such is the case a petition and supporting documents can be filed in the court where the garnishment order was issued to request that the amount be reduced.

They can if they take you to court for non-payment ! The debt is yours - therefore the court can order part of your wages to be paid directly to the card company until your debt is paid off ! If that happens, there's nothing you can do to stop it - apart from quitting your job ! (Which would be stupid !)
