Legal Question in Employment Law in Georgia
I have been delivered a Writ of Fieri Facias for an employee's debt in which I was garnishing wages. Employee was arrested in June of 09. We discontinue garnishment. The writ of fieri facias was dated September 30 09, signed October 5, 09 by the Judge and not delivered to me until January 8, 2009. How can I appeal. This is the first document I have recieved since the garnishment. This does not seem fair.

Appeal what? What is not "fair" (although that is almost never a legal issue)? What do the documents say, and how do they affect you? Those are only a few of the questions, but the bottom line is that if you need to appeal a Court Order (or ask for reconsideration, or take other action), you need a lawyer to answer these questions. If you do things incorrectly, and violate a court order, you will have many more problems.
If you didn't receive proper notice of the writ of garnishment, that may be a defense to employer liability. However, you will need assistance from local business and/or labor/employment attorney to review the documents and advise you.
