The automatic stay would temporarily halt the garnishment. If the debt was discharged, it would be halted permanently. If the overpayment was fraudulent, then the EDD would have to file the property legal proceeding in bankruptcy court called an Adversary Proceeding to object to you receive a discharge of that debt.
