<p class="MsoNormal">Hello Fellow Listservs,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I had a garnishment question and I figured it’s a longshot, but I’ll ask anyways.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The court issued a writ of garnishment on a continuing lien on earnings to allow my client to collect on a judgment. After serving the first and second answer to the employer and then obtaining the judgment on Answer and payment of the
employer withheld funds – my question is would the client have to re-start the process and reserve the 1<sup>st</sup> and then 2<sup>nd</sup> Answers again on the Employer or will the employer automatically continue to withhold?
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It seems that a new 1<sup>st</sup> and 2<sup>nd</sup> Answer must be resent to the employer and the process done again, but if anyone has experience with garnishments on wages, I’d be very appreciative of any guidance or insight that you
could provide on the process.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you in advance! <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Kind regards, <o:p></o:p></p>
