Yes, you should be able to get a hearing, if you have grounds for it.
Remember they have a judgement and if you were in breach of any agreement, even by "ONE DAY" they can use the judgement to garnish your pay.

So they have a legal right to do this. And you may be going back to court after the garnishment

I'm even surprised they gave you a hearing. The facts are they obtained a judgement against you. They were being nice in letting you make payments against the debt. They did not have to do so. And they were within their rights to use the judgement the minute you reneged on the agreement. It matters not that you informed them of the problem and when payment would be received. Remember you have a history with them of defaulting on your obligations.

I wonder what grounds you have for fighting the garnishment. I don't see any.
