the clerk of court and a copy mailed to the judgment creditor or

Saturdays, Sundays and legal holidays, from the date the
withheld earnings are received by the clerk of court. If the
objection is not filed within the time allowed, the clerk of
court shall pay the withheld income to the judgment creditor.

of a calculation of exempt earnings, and for good cause shown,
move the court in which the judgment was entered to hear an
