I have seen some information stating 10 usc 1440 is a federal code covering the Military retirement I...

    He Des and others, thanks for chiming in. He did assert that although the VA disability was untouchable, the military retirement, though not subject to garnishment, could be levied or attached from my bank account after a judgement. Thank you again for your advice.

    Can a judgment creditor levy Military retirement

    I hate having to do this but my wife has cancer again and we are pretty financially strapped. I asked on avvo where lawyers answer for free and both lawyers said yes, my Military retirement could be levied after it was deposited into my bank account. It’s so confusing.
