Nevada has adopted the uniform law on domesticating foreign judgments in Nevada. The first step is to obtain an exemplified copy of the judgment from the original court. The exemplified judgment is then filed with the Nevada court, and the defendant/debtor is given notice of the filing.
The garnishment process often starts after a creditor gets a judgment in court against a debtor. If a creditor gets a judgment against you, your employer will get a notice. The notice tells your employer they must withhold a specific amount of your wages. You'll get notice of the garnishment, too.
How long does the judgment creditor have to collect a Nevada judgment? In Nevada, a judgment will expire within six years from the date it is entered.
Nearly all household goods, furniture, family heirlooms, clothing, personal jewelry and retirement accounts are also exempt from creditors in bankruptcy. Life insurance policies are usually exempt, as well as 529 college savings plans. As to wages, Nevada law allows you to shield 75% of your income from creditors.
Personal property such as medical equipment, work tools, and basic household items are generally exempt from seizure by a judgment creditor. Negotiating a payment plan with the creditor is often the best approach to avoid prolonged and stressful collection efforts.
