    About solving a Garnishment Issue
    Hi Guys,
    Greetings and Blessings !

    Two weeks ago ( without previous announcement ) I received a file by mail, about a Wage Garnishment ( from an old Citi debt )
    Juts last week, 1177.00 from my check was taken under that concept ( again, without giving me the chance of defending myself )
    Ok, I then filled up the form "Exemption...blah, blah...." and sent it by mail to a North Miami Court.

    Now, about that money taken or garnished:

    Its currently kept on a "drawer" by my employer or by the Court?
    Until when ?
    How do I get it back ? Do I ?
    After an appointment with the Judge and Citi attorneys ?
    After I call that Citi attorney ?
    Until I pay off the 4800.00 owned ?
    Until that debt its paid off by the so called Garnisment?

    Thanks and gratefully,

    Enrique Garcia.
    Miami, FL

    Were you aware that a judgement had been entered against you?

    Hi Scott, thanks !
    Yes, on Nov 2005, while living in SanAntonio, I was served.
    Then, I was transferred to Miami, I did tell the Court there, I did inform them about my new address... then, I never received a new follow, just until now...

    You apparently didn't respond properly to the summons so a default judgement was entered against you. So they finally caught up with you and filed a garnishment,

    Not sure if there is anything you can do at this point.
