What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Illinois
I had a judgment placed against me in August of 2012 that resulted in a wage deduction order for the amount of $3400. To date, I have had over $5000 in wages garnished. The Plaintiff in the case was an ex-roomate, represented pro-se. My employer (Respondent) states that they will continue to garnish wages until receiving notification from the court that the order has been modified or released. The order also states that the Plaintiff "shall provide quarterly certifications of the judgment balance to Respondent within 15 days of the end of a calendar quarter in which any payment is received." To date this has not been done. My questions are:
1) should I first contact the Plaintiff to request an update on the balance?
2) how can I tell if my employer is not releasing funds to the court, or if the court is not releasing them to the Plaintiff?
3) does the Plaintiff need to file the Release (Satisfaction) of Judgment, or do I have to ask him to/file it myself?
4) how can I recoup overpayment for this judgment?
Thanks in advance.
