Q.Can my employer fire me because there is a garnishment on my wages?

A.No. Labor Code Section 224 provides that a wage garnishment is a lawful deduction from wages. Labor Code 2929(a) prohibits an employer from discharging an employee because a garnishment of wages has been threatened or imposed.
