Garnishment of a PERA government pension upon filing a chapter 13 bankruptcy

by Linda
(Litchfield, MN.)

We are faced with filing a chapter 13 bankruptcy and I am wondering if a Minnesota PERA government pension can be garnished upon completion of the chapter 13 bankruptcy when a monthly allotment is ordered and we become unable to make those payments. We currently reside in Minnesota, but upon completion of the bankruptcy will be moving to New Mexico to be nearer to family and start over again.

thank you.
