It takes quite an effort to garnish wages, in fact a judge will first determine whether the charges seem garnishable. It seems that you have not responded to any of their previous notices, and now you are stuck. My adivice is to hire an attorney. One of two things has happened. One, you failed to respond to the court, and a judgement was brought against you. Two, management hasn’t properly served you. Either way, you will need an attorney. Because the conditions were bad, doesn’t give automatic termination of the lease, you still need to break the lease legally. You may not have broken the lease as per the legal statutes.
