§ 5226. Installment payment order. Upon motion of the judgment

creditor, upon notice to the judgment debtor, where it is shown that the

judgment debtor is receiving or will receive money from any source, or

is attempting to impede the judgment creditor by rendering services

without adequate compensation, the court shall order that the judgment

debtor make specified installment payments to the judgment creditor.

manner as a summons or by registered or certified mail, return receipt

into consideration the reasonable requirements of the judgment debtor

and his dependents, any payments required to be made by him or deducted

from the money he would otherwise receive in satisfaction of other

judgments and wage assignments, the amount due on the judgment, and the

amount being or to be received, or, if the judgment debtor is attempting

to impede the judgment creditor by rendering services without adequate

compensation, the reasonable value of the services rendered.
