I filed for Chapter XXXX bankruptcy XX/XX/XXXX with XXXX XXXX Attorney : XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX : XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX # XXXX Virginia XXXX, VA XXXX, XXXX : XXXX ). XXXX my creditors, XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, VA XXXX ), was included in my bankruptcy. XXXX XXXX Apartment 's representative, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX, TX XXXX ) was notified of the bankruptcy filing as well. The Meeting of Creditors was held XX/XX/XXXX XXXX at the Office of the U.S. Trustee ( XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX, VA XXXX ). No creditors turned up to the meeting or filed to object to the discharge XX/XX/XXXX so the discharge was granted XX/XX/XXXX. 

XX/XX/XXXX, I noticed that the direct deposit that I received from my employer, XXXX ( also listed under XXXX XXXX XXXX, or XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) was short. When I went to work that same morning, I check my paystub online and saw that I was being garnished. The garnishment was listed under XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I went to the court website XXXX and found that XXXX Apartments, represented by Sykes, Bourdon, Ahern & Levy P.C XXXX ( Address : XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX Virginia XXXX, VA XXXX Phone : XXXX Fax : XXXX ), was granted permission to garnish me. In fact, the website shows that they filed for this on several dates including XX/XX/XXXX ( after the filing date ) and XX/XX/XXXX ( after the date of discharge ). I immediately sent copies of my bankruptcy discharge paperwork to both XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX so that the garnishment could be removed. This would be the second time that XXXX parties would be notified by me of the bankruptcy filing. I was not notified by any of these participating parties ( the creditor, the creditor 's representatives, my employer and the payroll company ) that I would be garnished. I am still waiting to receive a copy of the order. 

This unwarranted, undisclosed and illegal action has caused some financial issues to occur. My prescheduled car payment with XXXX XXXX Bank returned. This caused my bank, XXXX, to assess a return check fee in the amount of {$29.00}. XXXX XXXX Bank assessed a late fee in the amount of {$30.00} to my account. In addition to this scheduled payment, I still anticipated the availability of funds for other expenses. This action was completely unfair.
