QUESTION
How can a creditor set a higher amount to garnish after the garnishment for a different amount of money has already started?
Asked on Aug 13th, 2014 on Debtor and Creditor - Florida
More details to this question:
The garnishment is currently ongoing. The garnishment was set at about $4K. Yesterday, I got a "Final Judgement of Continuing Writ of Garnishment" re-stating the total to be $6400.....does this mean the payroll company started the garnishment on a motion, or a proposed order?

No way to tell without reviewing the documents. However, garnishment is means of enforcing a judgment and judgments accrue interest and sometimes have attorney's fees added to them.
