SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)

Effect of entry of support order in certain garnishment proceedings. Revises the Code provision allowing garnishments for child and spousal support when the United States is the third party. Presently, in order to garnish when the United States is liable, there must be a judgment of arrearage and the garnishment lapses after 180 days. The change eliminates the automatic lapse after 180 days and allows for garnishments to take place when there is a support order or decree. SB 1179 is incorporated in this bill.
