- High Court
An attachment order was appropriate because the liable party had been examined and failed to pay the judgment debt; the rules permit an attachment order after examination and provide a mechanism for variation, and the protected earnings amount should be set at 60% of the liable party's net earnings (calculated at $696.32 per week) to protect minimum subsistence while allowing deductions of $100 per week until the judgment and fees are paid.
