What is the meaning of writ of garnishment?
A Writ of Execution is used to enforce a money judgment. If you win your case and the judgment debtor does not pay you the amount owed within 30 days after entry of the judgment and there is no appeal pending, you will have to place a levy on the judgement debtors wages or property to collect the money owed to you.
What happens after a writ of garnishment is filed?
Issuance of Writ of Garnishment After the request is filed, the court clerk or a judge signs the Request, and it becomes a Writ of Garnishment. The Writ of Garnishment orders the employer to hold any property (typically wages) of the employee that the employer has at the time the Writ is filed.
