In your case, it is the process to pay your taxes. Federal law limits n how much judgment creditors can take from your paycheck. The amount that can be garnished is limited to 25% of your disposable earnings

    You need to understand what garnishment means and how it works. The creditors won your case and the court orders your employer to withhold a part of your paycheck. Next is to know your right in this situation. Your employer can not just take money from your salary. Follow all the process and pay your debt to lessen your problems.
