Jun 29, 2012OUTCOME: Motion reducing garnishment granted
U.S. Attorneys office was garnishing 100% of debtor's monthly disability pension to pay an order for restitution owed to the United States (exceeding a million dollars). We filed a motion to modify/ ... reduce the garnishment to 25% of debtor's monthly pension on the grounds that the Consumer Credit Protection Act (15 U.S.C. 1672) limits garnishments to 25%.
