Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Florida
Wage Garnishment
I understand that the state of Florida does not allow wage garnishment of any kind. Is this the case? Are there any exceptions to this? What about child support debt? Are there any other states that ''disallow'' wage garnishment?

Re: Wage Garnishment
Only the wages of the "head of household" are exempt from garnishment.
