They won their judgement,they filed for garshiments but was turn down because SC doesn't do garshiments. Then they went to the county I work in Ga to file for garshiments they were turned down again. Now they have filed for a judgement using my work address and won, so I received a letter to my employer to start taking out of my check. IS this legal, can they do that? What can I do to stop I have 45 days

So did you appear in court when they sued you in GA? When you bought up jurisdiction in court, what was said.

[haleybay]

There was no court date, the judge just signed and then a letter was sent to my work and home telling the payroll to start deducting from my check. How do I fight this?

[Fr_Chuck]

You said they filed in GA and "won"

To get a judgement in GA, they had to have had a court hearing, they can not just file and have the judge sign, unless you were notified and there was a hearing.

Oh yes they can! We were served with papers from a credit card company that they had filed suit in Superior Court here in Georgia. We answered. They asked the judge for judgement - no hearing, no court - and the judge gave it to them based on the fact that we did not deny the debt.
