Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in California

wage garnishment

my wages have been withheld for 3 paychecks now and I'm going to an exemption hearing to have the amount reduced to 100.00a paycheck instead of 380.00 now withheld.It's a 2700.00 judgment aganist me but I can't afford to pay my rent with 380.00 taken out every payday.Also once the judgment is satisfied,what do I do? They have filed liens with county recorder and withheld my wages after I agreed to make payments on judgment.
