Re: Exemptions

Not sure whether you're referring to the homestead exemption(which must be recorded with the court) from garnishment or a federal/state statutory exemption such as certain income such as SSI. However, in either instance, you will likely have to assert it in your defense in each case where a garnishment action is brought against you.
