Legal Question in Family Law in California
Wage Garnishing
An employee of our small office receives a wage garnishing order for child support, even though she has never missed a payment. Possible motivation is to embarass her by causing problems. What right does an employer like us has ? Since this puts additional work for our office twice per month,
Could we appeal this and demonstrate that the employee has never missed a payment ? Could we request that we remit monthly instead of bimonthly ? Or even quarterly ( even in advance) ?
The monthly amount is only $500.00

Re: Wage Garnishing
California requires a wage assignment for child support. There is nothing you can do to stop the wage assignment.
