      2. (ii) File the garnishee's interim report and answer or the garnishee's final report and answer by electronic image transmission if the clerk of the court permits the filing of documents electronically.
   4. (d) A garnishee to whom a municipal or county court or court of common pleas issues a continuous order of garnishment of personal earnings shall file with the court the garnishee's interim report and answer for each pay period of the judgment debtor for which an amount from the judgment debtor's personal disposable earnings during that pay period was withheld for that order. The garnishee is not required to file an interim report and answer for any pay period for which no amount from the judgment debtor's personal disposable earnings during that pay period was withheld for that order.
   5. (e) A garnishee to whom a municipal or county court or court of common pleas issues a continuous order of garnishment of personal earnings may deduct a processing fee of up to three dollars from the amount withheld from the judgment debtor's personal disposable earnings for each pay period of the judgment debtor that an amount from the judgment debtor's personal disposable earnings was withheld for that order. A garnishee shall not deduct the processing fee for any pay period in which no amount from the judgment debtor's personal disposable earnings during that pay period was withheld for that order and no garnishee's interim report and answer is filed. The garnishee's processing fee shall not be charged as court costs.

      4. (iv) The reason listed in division (C)(1) of this section that precludes the continuation of the withholding of the specified amount of the judgment debtor's personal disposable earnings in accordance with the order.

      2. (ii) When, pursuant to the procedure required by division (D)(3)(a)(i) of this section for the stacking of orders of garnishment of personal earnings with respect to the same judgment debtor, the subsequent order reaches highest priority, the garnishee, commencing with the first full pay period beginning after the subsequent order reaches highest priority, shall process the subsequent order until the subsequent order ceases to remain in effect for a reason listed in division (C)(1) of this section.

      2. (ii) If the maximum amount of the personal earnings of the judgment debtor that may be garnished during each pay period under the law of this state or of the United States is not exceeded after the application of division (D)(3)(b)(i) of this section, the garnishee shall withhold from the judgment debtor's personal disposable earnings during each pay period the amount, calculated each pay period at the statutory percentage, specified in one or more of the subsequent orders, in their order of priority, commencing with the first full pay period beginning after the subsequent order reaches priority, until the maximum amount, calculated each pay period at the statutory percentage, of the personal disposable earnings of the judgment debtor that may be garnished during each pay period under the law of this state or of the United States is reached and as long as the requisite time period up to and including the full pay period within which the one-hundred-eighty-second processing day falls has not expired with respect to a subsequent order and the subsequent order has not ceased to remain in effect for a reason listed in division (C)(1) of this section.

   3. (c) If a garnishee receives an order of garnishment of personal earnings with respect to a particular judgment debtor, if, at the time of the receipt of that order, the garnishee is the subject of a previously received continuous order of garnishment of personal earnings with respect to the same judgment debtor, and if the subsequent order has a higher priority under division (D)(2) of this section, the garnishee shall do both of the following:
