Reference no: EM131071677
Your company has recently hired a new person.
Shortly after this individual begins work, the company receives a "garnishment order." This court order specifies that a certain percentage of the employee's salary must be deducted each paycheck in order to satisfy a money judgment that has been entered against the employee.
After complying with the court order order for several paychecks, the company receives another court order to stop paying the garnishment (it turns out the employee was not notified of the proceedings that lead to a money judgment against him).
A few months later, in the same case (it is a divorce case), the company receives ANOTHER court order directing the company to "garnish" a percentage of the employee's wages.
The boss shows up at your door.
"This is too much," he says. "I want to get rid of this guy because these garnishment orders are driving me crazy."
1. What would you advise the boss - about firing the employee for the garnishment orders, and about garnishment generally?
A month later another garnishment order arrives - this time for a different case; a judgment was entered against the employee in a personal injury case (a car accident), the employee had proper notice of the court proceedings but chose not to defend, and judgment was entered against him.
2. Would your advice to your boss change? How?
