When multiple garnishments are ordered, the order of garnishment typically follows a priority based on the type of debt and the date the garnishment orders were issued. Generally, child support and alimony garnishments take precedence over other debts. After those, federal tax debts usually have priority, followed by state tax debts, and then unsecured debts like credit cards or personal loans. Ultimately, the specific laws can vary by jurisdiction, so it's important to consult local regulations for precise guidelines.
