Anyone who is owed money and who receives a valid court judgment to do so. This includes but is not limited to, child support, spousal maintenance, creditor debt, monies owed individuals, medical issues (hospitals, doctors, dentist, caregivers).

In theory, anyone who is owed money can file suit, receive a judgment and execute the judgment order in the form of wage garnishment of the judgment debtor. Please note, wage garnishments must run consecutively they cannot run concurrently. There is one exception, garnishment for tax arrearages and child support are usually allowed to be active while a second garnishment from another creditor is "running".
