UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT DISTRICT OF NEVADA UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Case No.: 2:10-cr-00045-GMN-PAL Plaintiff/Judgment Creditor, FINAL ORDER OF GARNISHMENT v. CORY HUTCHINSON, Defendant/Judgment Debtor, and CHOBANI LLC, and its Successors or Assigns, Garnishee.
This matter is before the Court for consideration of the entry of a final order in garnishment pursuant to Section 3205 of the Federal Debt Collections Procedures Act of 1990, 28 U.S.C. § 3205, against the non-exempt earnings of the Judgment Debtor, CORY HUTCHINSON.
Judgment was entered against Hutchinson on July 16, 2010, such judgment including a $100.00 special assessment and $348,000.00 restitution. As of July 29, 2025, $15,767.23 has been credited to the account including the special assessment, leaving an outstanding balance of $347,405.86 ($332,332.77 principal + $15,073.09 interest), with interest accruing at the daily rate of 0.3% beginning 15 days after entry of judgment. [1]
The United States filed an Application for Writ of Garnishment seeking any nonexempt property belonging to or owed the Judgment Debtor by Chobani LLC, its Successors or Assigns (“Garnishee”). A Writ of Garnishment was properly served on Garnishee, which filed an Answer stating that it had in its possession, custody or control, personal property belonging to and due the Judgment Debtor in the form of wages in the amount of $5,072.12 gross per week.
The Judgment Debtor was served with the Writ of Garnishment and notified of their right to claim an exemption or request a hearing. The Judgment Debtor did not request a hearing to determine exempt property.
Having considered the Application, Garnishee’s Answer and noting that the Judgment Debtor has not exercised their right to request a hearing, the Court GRANTS the United States’ Motion for Final Order of Garnishment and orders as follows:
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED, ADJUDGED and DECREED that the Garnishee is hereby ordered to pay into the hands of the Clerk, U.S. District Court, at least monthly, the lesser of:
1. Ten percent (10%) of Judgment Debtor’s gross earnings; or 2. Twenty-five percent (25%) of Judgment Debtor’s disposable earnings; or 3. All amounts of Judgment Debtor’s disposable earnings in excess of 30 times the
federal minimum hourly wage. See 15 U.S.C. § 1673(a) To calculate disposable earnings, subtract the following from wages, commissions, income: 1. Federal Income Tax; and 2. Federal Social Security Tax; and
24 3. Other state and local income taxes (if any). 25 26 27 28
