So today I received a bunch of court papers about a government Garnishment. The basic story is I did time in prison in the late 90's for a Bank Fraud conviction. At the time they dropped a restitution of 86k on me. I paid it while on parole but after I was off stopped paying it. Fast forward 16 years and they are putting through a Garnishment with my employer. It has not come out of my check yet I think it goes into effect in a month or so. Does anyone have any experience with this kind of thing and what can I expect. I think I remember reading that garnishments cannot exceed 15% which would still put me in a rough financial spot. Thanks in advance for any input.
