    Default Wage Garnishment

    Ok so I need some help here please. For the last 2 months I have had a garnishment on my paycheck. When contacting my HR department I was told that paperwork was sent to me in regards to the garnishment. I still haven't received anything and don't know what to do. The only thing I know about this garnishment is the company in which it is going to. I have no clue as to how much total they are going to be receving from me. I also would like to know if anyone know the stautes for a medical bill in Washington State. I haven't fought the garnishment or anything but I am curious to know. Please help me with this. I figured that I would get a notice or something of the garnishment. Honestly I think it is my right. I haven't been contacted by this company in about 4 yrs and I had assumed the problem was taking care of. This was suppose to have been paid by my insurance company in the first place and I sent the company the insurance information several times. At this point I just want it taken care of but would like to know my rights.

    Thank you so much for your help.

    If this is wage garnishment as the result of a court order, there is a judgment against you relating to the old debt. You need to figure out which court issued the judgment, and why you were not aware of the lawsuit against you.

    You probably got a default judgment against you for not answering summons/going to court. As Aaron suggested, you need to contact the court & see when & to whom the judgment was served.
