Aren't creditors suppose to stop any garnishes if you file for BK

Yes. And if they don't, they can be sued for contempt.

Brett.., I think you know as an attorney, one must have "willful
knowledge" to be found in contempt. Generally a layperson can not be found
in contempt of anything because his "willfulness" would be extremely hard to
prove absent his lack of "legal" knowledge!!
Besides.., it is usually "attorneys" who are found in contempt.., and not
laypersons representing themselves.., and don't forget.., one being found in
contempt can only occur following a separate hearing on the charge of
contempt.., which I haven't seen too often in BK..!!

A creditor who persists in a garnishment despite the
account-holder's filing for bankruptcy can be held in contempt by
the court. Your comments make no sense, and show a complete lack
of knowledge about bankruptcy law.
