NON-PERIODIC GARNISHMENTS Definitions Non-Periodic Garnishment - a garnishment of property or obligations made on a non-periodic basis, including but not limited to bank accounts, property, money, goods, chattels, credits, and negotiable instruments or effects. Do not use this form to garnish income tax refunds from the State of Michigan; see Michigan statute for specific procedures to garnish state income tax. Additional Instructions for the Plaintiff: You must provide information that will permit the garnishee to identify the defendant, such as the defendant's address, social security number, account number, etc. If the disclosure states that the garnishee holds property belonging to the defendant, you must motion the court (with notice to the defendant and the garnishee) for an order which will tell the garnishee to take the defendant's property, sell it, and apply it toward your judgment. If there are no pending objections to the garnishment and you have not filed such a motion within 56 days after the filing of the disclosure, the garnishment is dissolved and the garnishee may release the property to the defendant. Additional Instructions for the Defendant: 1. This writ has been issued because there is a judgment against you which you have not paid. In order to collect on this judgment, income due you may be withheld or property belonging to you may be taken from you and sold. 2. You may object to this garnishment if: a. Your income is exempt from garnishment by law; b. You have a pending bankruptcy proceeding; c. The maximum withheld exceeds the amount allowed by law; d. You have an installment payment order; e. You have paid the judgment in full; f. The garnishment was not properly issued or is otherwise invalid. 3. Certain income is exempt from garnishment and the law gives you the right to claim this income as exempt to prevent it from being used to collect on this judgment.
