EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

UNITED STATES, 

 Plaintiff,

v.

DONALD MITCH SHIVELEY,

 Defendant and Judgment Debtor,

______________________________________ 

 

S&D CARWASH MANAGEMENT, LLC,

Garnishee. 

 

Case No.: 2:15-MC-00093-MCE-CKD

STIPULATION RE GARNISHMENT;

AND ORDER THEREON

[No Hearing Requested]

Criminal Case No.: 2:06-CR-00273-MCE

Plaintiff United States and defendant and judgment debtor Donald Mitch Shiveley, (collectively 

the “Parties”), hereby stipulate to a final resolution of the United States’ pending garnishment action 

against Mr. Shiveley as follows:

1. On August 24, 2015, the United States sought, and the Clerk issued, a writ of 

garnishment against Mr. Shiveley’s wages and other monetary compensation. MC ECF Nos. 4 and 5, 

respectively. Mr. Shiveley works as a store manager and receives semi-monthly wages, earnings and 

bonuses from the garnishee, S&D Carwash Management, LLC (S&D Carwash). 

2. By its writ, the United States sought to enforce the restitution order issued by the Court in 

Mr. Shiveley’s sentencing in Case No. 2:06-CR-00273-MCE and incorporated in the Amended 

Case 2:15-mc-00093-MCE-CKD Document 13 Filed 11/17/15 Page 1 of 5

Judgment in a Criminal Case filed on January 31, 2007. CR ECF No. 35. Per the amended judgment, 

Mr. Shiveley was ordered to pay $1,990,154.00 in restitution plus a $100 assessment. Id. Mr. 

Shiveley’s restitution order remains unpaid.

3. The United States served the writ of garnishment on S&D Carwash on August 24, 2015. 

MC ECF No. 4. S&D Carwash served its Acknowledgment and Answer (the Answer) to the United 

States’ writ on September 15, 2015. MC ECF No. 8. The Answer states that Mr. Shiveley receives

semi-monthly wages in the gross amount of $1,733.33. After tax and other withholdings, Mr. Shiveley 

receives semi-monthly net wages of $1,548.50. Id. These wages represent Mr. Shiveley’s disposable 

earnings as a store manager.

4. S&D Carwash has been withholding 25% of Mr. Shiveley’s non-exempt, disposable 

earnings, wages and bonuses since September 2015. The 25% withholding amount comports with the 

Consumer Credit Protection Act’s 25% garnishment cap on a debtor’s non-exempt disposable earnings. 

15 U.S.C. § 1673(a)(1). 

5. The Parties notified the Court on October 23, 2015 that they had agreed to a settlement 

of this garnishment action. MC ECF No. 10. To effectuate this agreement, the Parties agree that the 

Court can and should enter an order as follows:

A. Garnishing 10% of Mr. Shiveley’s non-exempt, disposable (net) semi-monthly 

S&D Carwash earnings, wages and bonuses from the date S&D Carwash began withholding these

payments plus any amounts payable to him until April 30, 2016;

B. Garnishing 25% of Mr. Shiveley’s non-exempt, disposable (net) semi-monthly

S&D Carwash earnings, wages and bonuses after May 1, 2016 and continuing thereafter until further 

order of Court; and

C. Directing S&D Carwash to pay the garnishment amounts to the Clerk of the Court

as stated more specifically in the accompanying order.
