State Specific Question About: FLORIDA (FL)

I have never done a garnishment before. I have a judgment for an evicted tenant that I evicted in Oct 13 for $9100.00. Due to family situation I have been unable to address the issue until now. I had planned to turn over to a collection agency, but now having second thoughts. I know where they live. They have no money, but he does/did work and I think he still does. It will cost me close to $200.00 for a wage garnishment. Couple of questions. Once a judgment is awarded, can a Writ be denied? I hate to throw good money away on bad! And two, if a Writ is obtained and they quit their job, does the Writ go to the next job or do I need to pay $200.00 to file each time they change jobs? This eviction was a two part hearing. Part One Possession/Part Two Damages. They failed to show for Part Two. Then stated to me after the fact when they got their "Nasty Gram" collection/report to credit from this site, that they were never notified. They were, I sent certified, showed the "sealed/returned letter" to the judge who issued the judgment! Anyway, I just don't want to throw away good money on bad if I have to re-file if they quit their present job! --74.4.xx.xx

The wage garnishment will not follow them from job to job. If they change jobs, you would have to request a new garnishment. --68.46.xxx.xxx
