More details to this question:
I owe my landlord 3000 on back rent for a house I was renting i. New York. I wasnt evicted, but am moving out because the lease is up. I offered to set up a payment arrangement to pay back what I owe and my landlord refused. She said she is taking me to small claims court and is going to have my wages garnished. I also moved to Massachusetts and no longer reside in New York. Can my landlord really have my wages garnished?

If your landlord gets a judgment against you, he can have a City Marshal garniish your wages.
