    If the card was yours solely, and your wife did not hold a secondary card, then I think she is relatively safe from seizure of her wages, if and only if you do not share a joint bank account. Everything in a joint bank account is fair game if they receive a court ordered judgment.

    If your pay check, any money forthcoming from other sources id direct deposited then you should have that changed to cheques only sent to your home or a post office box.

    How much money is involved ?
