An emoluments attachment order (EAO), commonly called a garnishee order, is a court order that allows a creditor to deduct money directly from your salary.
Key points:
• Creditors must obtain a court judgement before applying for an EAO
• The deduction is made by your employer and paid to the creditor
• You cannot have more than 25% of your salary attached by law
• Many EAOs are unlawfully obtained and can be challenged
