Article 3-A - Assignment of Earnings
48-A - Manner of Collection; Percentage of Earnings Deductible; Restriction Against Multiple Deductions.

(a) the amount collectible in any month shall not exceed ten per
centum of the assignor's future earnings payable in such month;
(b) if at the time of the filing with the employer (1) any other
assignment of future earnings is subject to payment, or (2) any
garnishment against such earnings or order against the assignor for
installment payments to a judgment creditor, is in force, no amount
shall be collectible while such other assignment is subject to payment
or such garnishment or order is in force;
(c) no portion of future earnings shall be withheld from the assignor
or paid to satisfy such assignment in whole or in part while any portion
of the indebtedness secured by any valid assignment securing or relating
to an indebtedness aggregating less than one thousand dollars,
previously filed with the employer in accordance with this section,
shall remain unpaid.
3. No portion of future earnings shall be withheld from the assignor
or paid to satisfy in whole or in part any subsequent garnishment while
any portion of the indebtedness secured by any valid assignment securing
or relating to an indebtedness aggregating less than one thousand
dollars filed with the employer in accordance with this section shall
remain unpaid, but nothing contained herein shall exempt the earnings of
a judgment debtor from the application of an order for installment
payments to a judgment creditor.
