What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Oregon
I have a garnishment against me for a vehicle that was repossessed after my ex-husband took possession of it and did not pay on it at all. They could not find him to go after him, so they are coing after me now. The company hired a lawyer in Portland, that filed for garnishment against me. I do not work, nor do I have any taxable income to my name. My husband does work though, and he claims me as a dependent on our tax returns. Will this lawyer be able to garnish any tax refunds, state or federal, to satisfy this debt? The refund will be direct deposited into an account that has only my husband's name on it, as we have gotten seperate accounts to keep them from taking our money! (I am a full time student, whose only income is VA disability and school funds from the VA).
