Can a lawyer issue a garnishment to your employer without you being notified and in Mississippi can they garnish you twice for the same debt?

The garnishee is not notified by the judgment creditor or the court, but the wage garnishment will not begin until 30 days after the writ has been served on the employer; therefore the employer usually notifies the employee that garnishment action is pending. A wage garnishment will remain valid until the total judgment amount is paid in full. Wage deduction for child support is not considered garnishment, thereby allowing a support deduction and a creditor garnishment to be concurrently executed.

What is the maximum wage garnishment in the State of Alabama and would is a garnishment dischargeable in bankruptcy?

The state uses federal garnishment guidelines which would be a maximum of 25% of disposable income with the first $154.50 of weekly salary exempt from garnishment. The 25% only applies to creditor garnishment, it does not apply to court ordered child support, tax arrearages, and in some cases spousal maintenance or personal injury awards. Garnishment for those issues can be as much as 50% depending upon the circumstances and the decision of the judge. Wage garnishment for creditor debt can be eliminated in bankruptcy. Garnishment for the other issues cited such as child support cannot.
