CAN THERE BE MORE THAN ONE WAGE GARNISHMENT?
The debtor may owe more than one creditor. Therefore, there will be more than one enforcement file opened against him. In this case, the creditors who initiate enforcement proceedings against the debtor will collect their debts in order. This varies according to the nature and time of the debt. In other words, whichever creditor’s writ of attachment is first notified to the employer. Salary attachment issues for the debt of that creditor first. In other words, the important thing here is not which creditor’s receivable. Is due or which one is the first to open enforcement proceedings. What is important is which creditor’s writ of attachment is first notified to the employer.
There is an exception for alimony receivables. Alimony receivables are recorded in the first order regardless of the date of notification to the employer. However, this exception is not applied in terms of accumulated alimony receivables.
WHEN DOES THE SALARY GARNISHMENT END?
It is possible to end the debt with deductions from the debtor’s salary. Of course, how much this debt is and if more than one person is creditor, it may take a long time. Because if there is more than one creditor. The creditors will be collected from the salary garnishment in order.
