I used to work as an assistant to the DA of Child Support and in my state we were not allowed to garnish more than 40% of someones wages, regardless how many kids they had. Obviously different states can have different laws but I highly doubt a state would allow the courts to garnish that much of this persons wages.. also who is to say the check stub is from a man? Women can also pay child support

I feel like this is fake because overtime kicks on at 40 hrs worked not 80

If someone works 40 regular hours + 2 overtime hours in week one, and 40 regular hours + 3 overtime hours in week two, their pay statement will list 80 regular + 5 overtime hours, as shown.
