It is exempt under section 704.120 of the Code of Civil Procedure. If you have no accounts and no property, however, what were the levies on?

I agree with Mr. McCormick. You don't tell us what they are attempting to levy or execute on. I am also confused by your statement that you receive unemployment benefits, but don't have a bank account. How in the world do you cash the check?
