Attorney answers:
I'm disabled and do not work and have never worked. I have social secury and hence don't pay any taxes and never have.
From the information that you provided I assume that you will not be filing a State of MI income tax return and will not be receiving a refund. If that is true then the garnishment will be answered by the state that there were no funds to be garnshished and it will not affect you. Some creditors send the tax refund garnishment in on all judgment debtors.

Divorce-- can I contest that my judge has been changed?
I cannot tell from your questions why a different judge was assigned to hear the case. Has your Judge retired, will he be out for an extended period of time.

Do I have to or (Should I) file Bankruptcy also?

Attorney answers:
Chase took money out of my account without letting me know they were going to do this and no judgment was filed,
I am in Michigan so you should speak with an attorney in Florida, but in MI a creditor cannot garnish a bank account without due process-- lawsuit filed, service on the defendants and a judgment. However, if you had a Chase card and a Chase bank account, your documents with the bank allow them to take the money out of your Chase bank account to pay the Chase credit card bill. A charge off doesn't mean anything regarding y our liability on a debt. That is essentially a bookkeeping matter for...
