My question involves collection proceedings in the State of: NEW JERSEY
QUESION: Can a TPAF (teacher's pension and annuity fund) Pension be levied against to fulfill a civil money judgment? It doesn't appear to be possible so long as the funds are left in the retirement account, but I cannot find any statutory authority for this.

May have found the answer... can anyone confirm that New Jersey Pensions are judgment proof pursuant to N.J.S.A. § 25:2-1(b)? Still trying to figure out if TPAF is a qualifying trust.

Apparently that is only for IRA's, but I've now come to the conclusion that a TPAF pension is judgment proof under 29 U.S.C. § 1056(d)(1). Any advice would be helpful.
