Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Alabama
What does the term "STAYED" mean in dealings of garnishmants??
1 Answer from Attorneys
In any court proceeding, "stayed" means that it is stopped or on "pause" until something else happens. Usually, a judge's order would say "stayed pending.....(whatever the event is that they're waiting for)".
So, in this context, it sounds like the garnishment is stopped. You'll have to read the rest of the order to see why it is stayed or what they might be waiting for.
