A: Garnishment is a Post Judgment matter. You would have been served when the suit first started and unless you can actually prove insufficient service, they are not going to take your word over the Sheriff or other processing agent. Garnishments are done by writ, forwarded to you and your employer by mail. Generally, attached will be a document providing you an opportunity to object, if you have grounds (i.e. children).
