The father issued a Notice of Garnishment to collect a $6,500 costs award previously ordered against the mother.
The mother's employer began garnishing 20% of her net pay, amounting to approximately $420 per month.
The mother sought to reduce the garnishment to $250 per month, citing financial hardship and the needs of the three children in her care.
The court found that the current garnishment amount caused hardship to the mother and the children, and exercised its discretion under Rule 29(19) of the Family Law Rules to reduce the maximum garnishment to $250 per month.
