What is the name of your state? OR

I have two orders, one in Alaska and one in Washington. I work in Oregon.

I was employed by a Oregon employer for 2 years and had an Alaska CS order garnishing my wages. I left the employer almos a year ago and moved (still in OR) and have a new employer. That employer has wage garnishment notices from Alaska and now from Washington.

Combined I owe about $3k in arrears associated with being in between jobs and retro in the Washington case.

Last month I opted to cash out my 401k from my previous employer. With this payment be garnished? I don't believe that employer ever got notice from Washington and don't the withholding notices terminate when employment terminates?
