Hi I live in Ind. And I am being taken to court over a credit card debt under $2000.
My only source of income is a diability pension from the Post Office. Can my bank account be frozen or garnished or can my possessions be taken? Thanks

Hello f:

SS disability CAN'T be garnished but I don't know if your state (if you're receiving state funds) allows it. You need to check. They CAN attach your bank account, and you'll have a very hard time trying to tell them that the money in your account wasn't supposed to be taken... So, if after you find out that your check CAN'T be garnished, let your bank know about it ahead of time. If you find out that your check CAN be garnished, then I'd have them send it to you instead of directly into your bank.

No, they can't take your stuff.
