Summary

The bill sets uniform rules for continuous wage garnishments, requiring standardized notice forms, limiting how much can be taken from a worker’s pay, and outlining procedures for employers, creditors and garnishees. It applies only to ongoing garnishment actions and automatically dismisses or stays a case if the debtor’s main workplace is outside Oklahoma. The aim is to protect workers while still allowing valid judgments to be collected.
