Re: debt and collections law
You could file for bankruptcy which would solve the issue of you being a debtor once and for all, and would stop all collections, including the garnishments. Without a bankruptcy, it is hard to say whether you would have standing to bring a motion in court to stop the garnishments, as that motion may be the sole right of the landlord.

The levy must be challenged and countered with a action for unfair credit practices. Contact me directly.

Your attorney should contact the judgment creditor's attorney and point out these facts along with the potential that the judgment creditor could become liable to you for unfair debt collection practices and tortious interference with contractual relationships.
