In the state of Tennessee, if a court has issued a judgment for wage garnishment and a company refuses to comply, the individual seeking garnishment may file a Motion for Contempt with the court. This motion informs the court of the company's non-compliance and requests that the court take action against the company. The court may then issue a show cause order requiring the company to appear and explain why they have not complied with the garnishment order. Failure to comply with a court-ordered wage garnishment can result in penalties for the non-compliant company.
