1.8 	BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF MINNESOTA:

1.9 	Section 1. Minnesota Statutes 2018, section 550.136, subdivision 3, is amended to read:
1.10 		Subd. 3.Limitation on levy on earnings. (a) Unless the judgment is for child support, 
1.11 	the maximum part of the aggregate disposable earnings of an individual for any pay period 
1.12 	subjected to an execution levy may not exceed the lesser of:
1.13 	(1) 25 percent of the judgment debtor's disposable earnings; or
1.14 	(2) the amount by which the judgment debtor's disposable earnings exceed the following 
1.15 	product greater of: (i) 40 times $9.50 or 40 times the federal minimum hourly wages 
1.16 	prescribed by section 6(a)(1) of the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, United States Code, 
1.17 	title 29, section 206(a)(1), in effect at the time the earnings are payable, times the number 
1.18 	of work weeks in the pay period. When a pay period consists of other than a whole number 
1.19 	of work weeks, each day of that pay period in excess of the number of completed work 
1.20 	weeks shall be counted as a fraction of a work week equal to the number of excess workdays 
1.21 	divided by the number of days in the normal work week.
1.22 	(b) If the judgment is for child support, the levy may not exceed:
2.1 	(1) 50 percent of the judgment debtor's disposable income, if the judgment debtor is 
2.2 	supporting a spouse or dependent child and the judgment is 12 weeks old or less (12 weeks 
2.3 	to be calculated to the beginning of the work week in which the execution levy is received);
2.4 	(2) 55 percent of the judgment debtor's disposable income, if the judgment debtor is 
2.5 	supporting a spouse or dependent child, and the judgment is over 12 weeks old (12 weeks 
2.6 	to be calculated to the beginning of the work week in which the execution levy is received);
2.7 	(3) 60 percent of the judgment debtor's disposable income, if the judgment debtor is not 
2.8 	supporting a spouse or dependent child and the judgment is 12 weeks old or less (12 weeks 
2.9 	to be calculated to the beginning of the work week in which the execution levy is received); 
2.10 	or
2.11 	(4) 65 percent of the judgment debtor's disposable income, if the judgment debtor is not 
2.12 	supporting a spouse or dependent child, and the judgment is over 12 weeks old (12 weeks 
2.13 	to be calculated to the beginning of the work week in which the execution levy is received).
2.14 	Execution levies under this section on judgments for child support are effective until 
2.15 	the judgments are satisfied if the judgment creditor is a county and the employer is notified 
2.16 	by the county when the judgment is satisfied.
2.17 	(c) No court may make, execute, or enforce an order or any process in violation of this 
2.18 	section.

2.19 	Sec. 2. Minnesota Statutes 2018, section 550.136, subdivision 4, is amended to read:
2.20 		Subd. 4.Multiple levies on earnings. Except as otherwise provided in this chapter or 
2.21 	section 518A.53, the priority of multiple earnings execution levies is determined by the 
2.22 	order in which the execution levies were served on the employer. If the employer is served 
2.23 	with two or more writs of execution at the same time on the same day, the writ of execution 
2.24 	issued pursuant to the first judgment entered has priority. If two or more execution levies 
2.25 	are served on the same day and are based on judgments entered on the same day, then the 
2.26 	employer shall select the priority of the earnings levies. However, in all cases except earnings 
2.27 	execution levies on judgments for child support if the judgment creditor is a county and the 
2.28 	employer is notified by the county when the judgment is satisfied, the execution levies shall 
2.29 	be effective no longer than 70 90 days from the date of the service of the writ of execution.

2.30 	Sec. 3. Minnesota Statutes 2018, section 550.136, subdivision 5, is amended to read:
2.31 		Subd. 5.Earnings attachable. (a) Subject to the exemptions provided by sections 550.37
2.32 	and 571.922, and any other applicable statute, and except as otherwise provided in paragraph 
3.1 	(b), the service of a writ of execution under this chapter attaches all unpaid nonexempt 
3.2 	disposable earnings owing or to be owed by the third party and earned or to be earned by 
3.3 	the judgment debtor before and within the pay period in which the writ of execution is 
3.4 	served and within all subsequent pay periods whose paydays occur within the 70 90 days 
3.5 	after the date of service of the writ of execution. "Paydays" means the days upon which the 
3.6 	third party pays earnings to the judgment debtor in the ordinary course of business. If the 
3.7 	judgment debtor has no regular paydays, paydays means the 15th day and the last day of 
3.8 	each month. If the levy attaches less than $10, the third party shall not retain and remit the 
3.9 	sum.
3.10 	(b) The service of a writ of execution on a judgment for child support attaches to all 
3.11 	unpaid nonexempt disposable earnings owing or to be owed by the third party and earned 
3.12 	or to be earned by the judgment debtor before and within the pay period in which the writ 
3.13 	of execution is served and within all subsequent pay periods until the judgment is satisfied 
3.14 	if the judgment creditor is a county and the third party is notified by the county when the 
3.15 	judgment is satisfied.

3.16 	Sec. 4. Minnesota Statutes 2018, section 550.136, subdivision 9, is amended to read:
3.17 		Subd. 9.Execution earnings disclosure form and worksheet. The judgment creditor

3.19 	earnings disclosure form and an earnings disclosure worksheet with the writ of execution, 
3.20 	that must be substantially in the form set forth below.

12.12 	Sec. 6. Minnesota Statutes 2018, section 550.136, subdivision 12, is amended to read:
12.13 		Subd. 12.Third-party disclosure and remittance obligation. If there are no attachable 
12.14 	earnings, the third party shall serve the execution earnings disclosure form upon the sheriff 
12.15 	within 20 days after service of the writ of execution. However, if the judgment debtor has 
12.16 	attachable earnings, the third party shall serve the execution earnings disclosure form and 
12.17 	remit to the sheriff the attached earnings within ten days of the last payday to occur within 
12.18 	the 70 90 days after the date of the service of the execution. If the judgment is wholly 
12.19 	satisfied or if the judgment debtor's employment ends before the expiration of the 70-day
12.20 	90-day period, the disclosure and remittance should be made within ten days after the last 
12.21 	payday for which earnings were attached. The amount of the third party's execution earnings 
12.22 	disclosure form and remittance need not exceed 110 percent of the amount of the judgment 
12.23 	creditor's judgment that remains unpaid, after subtracting the total of setoffs, defenses, 
12.24 	exemption, or other adverse interests. If the disclosure is by a corporation, it shall be made 
12.25 	by an officer or an authorized agent having knowledge of the facts.

12.26 	Sec. 7. Minnesota Statutes 2018, section 551.04, subdivision 2, is amended to read:
12.27 		Subd. 2.Property attachable. Subject to the exemptions provided by subdivision 3 and 
12.28 	section 550.37, and any other applicable statute, the service of a writ of execution under 
12.29 	this chapter attaches:
12.30 	(a) Except as otherwise provided in paragraph (c), all unpaid nonexempt disposable 
12.31 	earnings owing or to be owed by the third party and earned or to be earned by the judgment 
12.32 	debtor within the pay period in which the writ of execution is served and within all subsequent 
13.1 	pay periods whose paydays occur within the 70 90 days after the date of service of the writ 
13.2 	of execution. "Payday" means the day upon which the third party pays earnings to the 
13.3 	judgment debtor in the ordinary course of business. If the judgment debtor has no regular 
13.4 	paydays, payday means the 15th day and the last day of each month.
13.5 	(b) All other nonexempt indebtedness or money due or belonging to the judgment debtor 
13.6 	and owing by the third party or in the possession or under the control of the third party at 
13.7 	the time of service of the writ of execution, whether or not the same, has become payable. 
13.8 	The third party shall not be compelled to pay or deliver the same before the time specified 
13.9 	by any agreement unless the agreement was fraudulently contracted to defeat an execution 
13.10 	levy or other collection remedy.
13.11 	(c) For an execution on a judgment for child support, all unpaid nonexempt disposable 
13.12 	earnings owing or to be owed by the third party and earned or to be earned by the judgment 
13.13 	debtor within the pay period in which the writ of execution is served and within all subsequent 
13.14 	pay periods until the judgment is satisfied if the judgment creditor is a county and the third 
13.15 	party is notified by the county when the judgment is satisfied.

13.16 	Sec. 8. Minnesota Statutes 2018, section 551.04, subdivision 11, is amended to read:
13.17 		Subd. 11.Forms. No judgment creditor shall use a form that contains alterations or 
13.18 	changes from the statutory forms that mislead judgment debtors as to their rights and the 
13.19 	execution procedure generally. If a court finds that a judgment creditor has used a misleading 
13.20 	form, the judgment debtor shall be awarded actual damages, costs, reasonable attorney's 
13.21 	fees resulting from additional proceedings, and an amount not to exceed $100. All forms 
13.22 	must be clearly legible and printed in not less than the equivalent of 10-point type. A form 
13.23 	that uses both sides of a sheet must clearly indicate on the front side that there is additional 
13.24 	information on the back side of the sheet.
13.25 	Forms, including the statutory forms, used in executions upon earnings for the satisfaction 
13.26 	of judgments for child support must be changed by the creditor to reflect the fact that the 
13.27 	70-day 90-day period of effectiveness does not apply to these executions if the judgment 
13.28 	creditor is a county and the employer is notified by the county when the judgment is satisfied.

13.29 	Sec. 9. Minnesota Statutes 2018, section 551.06, subdivision 3, is amended to read:
13.30 		Subd. 3.Limitation on levy on earnings. (a) Unless the judgment is for child support, 
13.31 	the maximum part of the aggregate disposable earnings of an individual for any pay period 
13.32 	subjected to an execution levy may not exceed the lesser of:
14.1 	(1) 25 percent of the judgment debtor's disposable earnings; or
14.2 	(2) the amount by which the judgment debtor's disposable earnings exceed the following 
14.3 	product greater of: (i) 40 times $9.50 or 40 times the federal minimum hourly wages 
14.4 	prescribed by section 6(a)(1) of the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, United States Code, 
14.5 	title 29, section 206(a)(1), in effect at the time the earnings are payable, times the number 
14.6 	of work weeks in the pay period. When a pay period consists of other than a whole number 
14.7 	of work weeks, each day of that pay period in excess of the number of completed work 
14.8 	weeks shall be counted as a fraction of a work week equal to the number of excess workdays 
14.9 	divided by the number of days in the normal work week.
14.10 	(b) If the judgment is for child support, the levy may not exceed:
14.11 	(1) 50 percent of the judgment debtor's disposable income, if the judgment debtor is 
14.12 	supporting a spouse or dependent child and the judgment is 12 weeks old or less (12 weeks 
14.13 	to be calculated to the beginning of the work week in which the execution levy is received);
14.14 	(2) 55 percent of the judgment debtor's disposable income, if the judgment debtor is 
14.15 	supporting a spouse or dependent child, and the judgment is over 12 weeks old (12 weeks 
14.16 	to be calculated to the beginning of the work week in which the execution levy is received);
14.17 	(3) 60 percent of the judgment debtor's disposable income, if the judgment debtor is not 
14.18 	supporting a spouse or dependent child and the judgment is 12 weeks old or less (12 weeks 
14.19 	to be calculated to the beginning of the work week in which the execution levy is received); 
14.20 	or
14.21 	(4) 65 percent of the judgment debtor's disposable income, if the judgment debtor is not 
14.22 	supporting a spouse or dependent child, and the judgment is over 12 weeks old (12 weeks 
14.23 	to be calculated to the beginning of the work week in which the execution levy is received).
14.24 	Execution levies under this section on judgments for child support are effective until 
14.25 	the judgments are satisfied if the judgment creditor is a county and the employer is notified 
14.26 	by the county when the judgment is satisfied.
14.27 	(c) No court may make, execute, or enforce an order or any process in violation of this 
14.28 	section.

14.29 	Sec. 10. Minnesota Statutes 2018, section 551.06, subdivision 4, is amended to read:
14.30 		Subd. 4.Multiple levies on earnings. Except as otherwise provided in this chapter or 
14.31 	section 518A.53, the priority of multiple earnings execution levies is determined by the 
14.32 	order in which the execution levies were served on the employer. If the employer is served 
15.1 	with two or more writs of execution at the same time on the same day, the writ of execution 
15.2 	issued pursuant to the first judgment entered has priority. If two or more execution levies 
15.3 	are served on the same day and are based on judgments entered on the same day, then the 
15.4 	employer shall select the priority of the earnings levies. However, in all cases except earnings 
15.5 	execution levies on judgments for child support if the judgment creditor is a county and the 
15.6 	employer is notified by the county when the judgment is satisfied, the execution levies shall 
15.7 	be effective no longer than 70 90 days from the date of the service of the writ of execution.

15.8 	Sec. 11. Minnesota Statutes 2018, section 551.06, subdivision 5, is amended to read:
15.9 		Subd. 5.Earnings attachable. (a) Subject to the exemptions provided by subdivision 
15.10 	3 and section 550.37, and any other applicable statute, and except as otherwise provided in 
15.11 	paragraph (b), the service of a writ of execution under this chapter attaches all unpaid 
15.12 	nonexempt disposable earnings owing or to be owed by the third party and earned or to be 
15.13 	earned by the judgment debtor before and within the pay period in which the writ of execution 
15.14 	is served and within all subsequent pay periods whose paydays occur within the 7090 days 
15.15 	after the date of service of the writ of execution. "Paydays" means the days upon which the 
15.16 	third party pays earnings to the judgment debtor in the ordinary course of business. If the 
15.17 	judgment debtor has no regular paydays, paydays means the 15th day and the last day of 
15.18 	each month. If the levy attaches less than $10, the third party shall not retain and remit the 
15.19 	sum.
15.20 	(b) The service of a writ of execution on a judgment for child support attaches to all 
15.21 	unpaid nonexempt disposable earnings owing or to be owed by the third party and earned 
15.22 	or to be earned by the judgment debtor before and within the pay period in which the writ 
15.23 	of execution is served and within all subsequent pay periods until the judgment is satisfied 
15.24 	if the judgment creditor is a county and the third party is notified by the county when the 
15.25 	judgment is satisfied.

15.26 	Sec. 12. Minnesota Statutes 2018, section 551.06, subdivision 9, is amended to read:
15.27 		Subd. 9.Notice of levy on earnings, disclosure, and worksheet. The attorney for the 
15.28 	judgment creditor shall serve upon the judgment debtor's employer a notice of levy on 
15.29 	earnings and an execution earnings disclosure form and an earnings disclosure worksheet 
15.30 	with the writ of execution, that must be substantially in the form set forth below.

26.8 	Sec. 14. Minnesota Statutes 2018, section 551.06, subdivision 12, is amended to read:
26.9 		Subd. 12.Third-party disclosure and remittance obligation. If there are no attachable 
26.10 	earnings, the third party shall serve the execution earnings disclosure form upon the attorney 
26.11 	for the judgment creditor within 20 days after service of the writ of execution. However, if 
26.12 	the judgment debtor has attachable earnings, the third party shall serve the execution earnings 
26.13 	disclosure form upon both the attorney for the judgment creditor and the judgment debtor 
26.14 	and remit to the attorney for the judgment creditor the attached earnings within ten days of 
26.15 	the last payday to occur within the 7090 days after the date of the service of the writ of 
26.16 	execution. If the judgment is wholly satisfied or if the judgment debtor's employment ends 
26.17 	before the expiration of the 70-day 90-day period, the disclosure and remittance should be 
26.18 	made within ten days after the last payday for which earnings were attached. The amount 
26.19 	of the third party's execution earnings disclosure form and remittance need not exceed 100 
26.20 	percent of the amount of the judgment creditor's judgment that remains unpaid, after 
26.21 	subtracting the total of setoffs, defenses, exemption, or other adverse interests. If the 
26.22 	disclosure is by a corporation, it shall be made by an officer or an authorized agent having 
26.23 	knowledge of the facts.

26.24 	Sec. 15. Minnesota Statutes 2018, section 571.72, subdivision 2, is amended to read:
26.25 		Subd. 2.Service of garnishment summons. To enforce a claim asserted in a civil action 
26.26 	venued in a court of record, a garnishment summons may be issued by a creditor and served 
26.27 	upon the garnishee in the same manner as other summons in that court of record, except 
26.28 	that service may not be made by publication. Service of a garnishment summons on the 
26.29 	garnishee may also be made by certified mail, return receipt requested. A garnishment 
26.30 	summons served by certified mail is effective if served at the garnishee's regular place of 
26.31 	business. The effective date of service by certified mail is the time of receipt by the garnishee. 
26.32 	A single garnishment summons may be addressed to two or more garnishees but must state 
26.33 	whether each is summoned separately or jointly.
27.1 	The garnishment summons must state:
27.2 	(1) the full name of the debtor, the debtor's last known mailing address, and the amount 
27.3 	of the claim that remains unpaid;
27.4 	(2) the date of the entry of judgment against the debtor or that the debtor is in default 
27.5 	pursuant to rule 55.01 of the Minnesota Rules of Civil Procedure for the District Courts. 
27.6 	Where there is a prejudgment garnishment pursuant to section 571.93, the garnishment 
27.7 	summons must include a copy of the court order;
27.8 	(3) if the garnishment is on any indebtedness, money, or property other than earnings, 
27.9 	the garnishee shall serve upon the creditor and upon the debtor within 20 days after service 
27.10 	of the garnishment summons, a written disclosure, of the garnishee's indebtedness, money, 
27.11 	or other property owing to the debtor and answers to all written interrogatories that are 
27.12 	served with the garnishment summons. The garnishment summons shall also state that if 
27.13 	the garnishment is on earnings and the debtor has garnishable earnings, the garnishee shall 
27.14 	serve the disclosure within ten days of the last payday to occur within the 70 90 days after 
27.15 	the date of service of the garnishment summons;
27.16 	(4) that the creditor shall not require disclosure of the disposable earnings, indebtedness, 
27.17 	money, or property of debtor in the garnishee's possession or under the garnishee's control 
27.18 	in excess of 110 percent of the amount of the claim that remains unpaid;
27.19 	(5) that the garnishee shall retain disposable earnings, indebtedness, money, or property 
27.20 	of the debtor in the garnishee's possession or under the garnishee's control not in excess of 
27.21 	110 percent of the amount of the claim that remains unpaid, until the creditor causes a writ 
27.22 	of execution to be served upon the garnishee, until the debtor authorizes release to the 
27.23 	creditor, until the creditor authorizes release to the debtor, upon court order, or by operation 
27.24 	of law;
27.25 	(6) that after the expiration of the period of time specified in section 571.79 from the 
27.26 	date of service of the garnishment summons, the garnishee's retention obligation 
27.27 	automatically expires;
27.28 	(7) that an assignment of wages made by the debtor within ten days before the service 
27.29 	of the first garnishment summons on a debt is void and that any indebtedness to the garnishee 
27.30 	incurred with ten days before the service of the first garnishment summons on a debt may 
27.31 	not be set off against amounts otherwise subject to the garnishment.

28.1 	Sec. 16. Minnesota Statutes 2018, section 571.72, subdivision 7, is amended to read:
28.2 		Subd. 7.Forms. No creditor shall use a form that contains alterations or changes from 
28.3 	the statutory forms that mislead debtors as to their rights and the garnishment procedure 
28.4 	generally. If a court finds that a creditor has used a misleading form, the debtor shall be 
28.5 	awarded actual damages, costs, reasonable attorney's fees resulting from additional 
28.6 	proceedings, and an amount not to exceed $100. All forms must be clearly legible and 
28.7 	printed in not less than the equivalent of 10-point type. A form that uses both sides of a 
28.8 	sheet must clearly indicate on the front side that there is additional information on the back 
28.9 	side of the sheet.
28.10 	Forms, including the statutory forms, used in garnishments of earnings for the satisfaction 
28.11 	of judgments for child support must be changed by the creditor to reflect the fact that the 
28.12 	70-day 90-day period of effectiveness does not apply to these garnishments if the judgment 
28.13 	creditor is a county and the employer is notified by the county when the judgment is satisfied.

28.14 	Sec. 17. Minnesota Statutes 2018, section 571.73, subdivision 3, is amended to read:
28.15 		Subd. 3.Property attachable. Subject to the exemptions provided by sections 550.37
28.16 	and 571.922 and any other applicable statute, the service of a garnishment summons under 
28.17 	this chapter attaches:
28.18 	(1) except as otherwise provided in clause (4), all unpaid nonexempt disposable earnings 
28.19 	owed or to be owed by the garnishee and earned or to be earned by the debtor within the 
28.20 	pay period in which the garnishment summons is served and within all subsequent pay 
28.21 	periods whose paydays occur within the 70 90 days after the date of service of the 
28.22 	garnishment summons. "Payday" means the day upon which the garnishee pays earnings 
28.23 	to the debtor in the ordinary course of business. If the debtor has no regular paydays, 
28.24 	"payday" means the 15th day and the last day of each month;
28.25 	(2) all other nonexempt indebtedness, money, or other property due or belonging to the 
28.26 	debtor and owing by the garnishee or in the possession or under the control of the garnishee 
28.27 	at the time of service of the garnishment summons, whether or not the same has become 
28.28 	payable. The garnishee shall not be compelled to pay or deliver the same before the time 
28.29 	specified by any agreement unless the agreement was fraudulently contracted to defeat a 
28.30 	garnishment or other collection remedy;
28.31 	(3) all other nonexempt intangible or tangible personal property of the debtor in the 
28.32 	possession or under the control of the garnishee at the time of service of the garnishment 
28.33 	summons, including property of any kind due from or in the hands of an executor, 
29.1 	administrator, personal representative, receiver, or trustee, and all written evidences of 
29.2 	indebtedness whether or not negotiable or not yet underdue or overdue; and
29.3 	(4) for a garnishment on a judgment for child support by a county, all unpaid nonexempt 
29.4 	disposable earnings owed or to be owed by the garnishee and earned or to be earned by the 
29.5 	debtor within the pay period in which the garnishment summons is served and within all 
29.6 	subsequent pay periods until the judgment is satisfied.

31.18 	and the debtor, within 20 days after service of the garnishment summons, a written disclosure 
31.19 	of the garnishee's indebtedness, money, or other property owing to the debtor. However, if

31.21 	serve the disclosure and earnings disclosure worksheet within ten days after the last payday

31.24 	course of business. If the debtor has no regular paydays, "payday" means the 15th day and

31.26 	percent of the amount of the creditor's claim that remains unpaid, after subtracting the total 
31.27 	of setoffs, defenses, exemptions, ownership claims, or other interests. The answers to the

31.29 	is by a corporation, it shall be made by an officer, managing agent, or other authorized 
31.30 	person having knowledge of the facts.

31.31 	Sec. 20. Minnesota Statutes 2018, section 571.75, subdivision 2, is amended to read:
31.32 		Subd. 2.Contents of disclosure. The disclosure must state:
32.1 	(a) If an earnings garnishment disclosure, the amount of disposable earnings earned by 
32.2 	the debtor within the debtor's pay periods as specified in section 571.921.
32.3 	(b) If a nonearnings garnishment disclosure, a description of any personal property or 
32.4 	any instrument or papers relating to this property belonging to the judgment debtor or in 
32.5 	which the debtor is interested or other indebtedness of the garnishee to the debtor.
32.6 	(c) If the garnishee asserts any setoff, defense, claim, or lien on disposable earnings, 
32.7 	other indebtedness, money, or property, the garnishee shall disclose the amount and the 
32.8 	facts concerning the same.
32.9 	(d) Whether the debtor asserts any exemption, or any other objection, known to the 
32.10 	garnishee against the right of the creditor to garnish the disposable earnings, other 
32.11 	indebtedness, money, or property disclosed.
32.12 	(e) If other persons assert claims to any disposable earnings, other indebtedness, money, 
32.13 	or property disclosed, the garnishee shall disclose the names and addresses of these claimants 
32.14 	and, so far as known by the garnishee, the nature of their claims.
32.15 	(f) The garnishment disclosure forms and earnings disclosure worksheet must be the 
32.16 	same or substantially similar to the following forms. If the garnishment affects earnings of 
32.17 	the debtor, the creditor shall use the earnings garnishment disclosure form. If the garnishment 
32.18 	affects any indebtedness, money, or property of the debtor, other than earnings, the creditor 
32.19 	shall use the nonearnings garnishment disclosure form. Nothing contained in this paragraph 
32.20 	limits the simultaneous use of the earnings and nonearnings garnishment disclosure forms.

43.1 	Sec. 21. Minnesota Statutes 2018, section 571.922, is amended to read:
43.2 	571.922 LIMITATION ON WAGE GARNISHMENT.
43.3 	(a) Unless the judgment is for child support, the maximum part of the aggregate 
43.4 	disposable earnings of an individual for any pay period subjected to garnishment may not 
43.5 	exceed the lesser of:
43.6 	(1) 25 percent of the debtor's disposable earnings; or
43.7 	(2) the amount by which the debtor's disposable earnings exceed the following product
43.8 	greater of:
43.9 	(i) 40 times the hourly wage described in section 177.24, subdivision 1, paragraph (b), 
43.10 	item (iii); or
43.11 	(ii) 40 times the federal minimum hourly wages prescribed by section 6(a)(1) of the Fair 
43.12 	Labor Standards Act of 1938, United States Code, title 29, section 206(a)(1),. The calculation 
43.13 	of the amount that is subject to garnishment must be based on the hourly wage in effect at 
43.14 	the time the earnings are payable, times the number of work weeks in the pay period. When 
43.15 	a pay period consists of other than a whole number of work weeks, each day of that pay 
43.16 	period in excess of the number of completed work weeks shall be counted as a fraction of 
43.17 	a work week equal to the number of excess workdays divided by the number of days in the 
43.18 	normal work week.
43.19 	(b) If the judgment is for child support, the garnishment may not exceed:
43.20 	(1) 50 percent of the judgment debtor's disposable income, if the judgment debtor is 
43.21 	supporting a spouse or dependent child and the judgment is 12 weeks old or less (12 weeks 
43.22 	to be calculated to the beginning of the work week in which the execution levy is received);
43.23 	(2) 55 percent of the judgment debtor's disposable income, if the judgment debtor is 
43.24 	supporting a spouse or dependent child, and the judgment is over 12 weeks old (12 weeks 
43.25 	to be calculated to the beginning of the work week in which the garnishment summons is 
43.26 	received);
43.27 	(3) 60 percent of the judgment debtor's disposable income, if the judgment debtor is not 
43.28 	supporting a spouse or dependent child and the judgment is 12 weeks old or less (12 weeks 
43.29 	to be calculated to the beginning of the work week in which the execution levy is received); 
43.30 	or
43.31 	(4) 65 percent of the judgment debtor's disposable income, if the judgment debtor is not 
43.32 	supporting a spouse or dependent child, and the judgment is over 12 weeks old (12 weeks 
44.1 	to be calculated to the beginning of the work week in which the garnishment summons is 
44.2 	received).
44.3 	Wage garnishments on judgments for child support are effective until the judgments are 
44.4 	satisfied if the judgment creditor is a county and the employer is notified by the county 
44.5 	when the judgment is satisfied.
44.6 	(c) No court may make, execute, or enforce an order or any process in violation of this 
44.7 	section.

44.8 	Sec. 22. Minnesota Statutes 2018, section 571.923, is amended to read:
44.9 	571.923 MULTIPLE EARNINGS GARNISHMENTS.
44.10 	Except as otherwise provided in this chapter or section 518A.53, the priority of multiple 
44.11 	earnings garnishments shall be determined by the order in which the garnishment summonses 
44.12 	were served on the employer. If the employer is served with two or more garnishment 
44.13 	summonses at the same time on the same day, the garnishment summons issued pursuant 
44.14 	to the first judgment entered has priority. If two or more garnishment summonses are served 
44.15 	on the same day and are based on judgments entered on the same day or if there are two or 
44.16 	more garnishment summonses based on prejudgment garnishment pursuant to section 571.93, 
44.17 	then the employer shall select the priority of the earnings garnishments. However, in all 
44.18 	cases except wage garnishments on judgments for child support if the judgment creditor is 
44.19 	a county and the employer is notified by the county when the judgment is satisfied, 
44.20 	garnishments shall be effective no longer than 70 90 days from the date of the service of 
44.21 	the garnishment summons.

44.22 	Sec. 23. EFFECTIVE DATE.
 44.23 	Sections 1 to 22 are effective August 1, 2021, and apply to all earnings garnished or 
44.24 	levied, or all attorney's summary executions upon earnings on or after that date.
