Best Answer

It refers to the garnishment of wages by a creditor for repayment of a debt. States inact their own garnishment laws, the maximum amount allowed by federal law is 25% of disposable income the first $154.50 of weekly wages are totally exempt. A garnishment order for debt can often be modified if "undue hardship" can be proven. These terms DO NOT apply to child support and in some cases spousal maintenance.
