1Opinion of the Court
WALLACE, Judge.
USAmeriBank (the Bank) appeals the circuit court’s order blocking its attempt to collect a money judgment against Richard Nelson Klepal, Jr., by garnishing his wages. The issue presented is whether Mr. Klepal, who is currently the head of a family, agreed in writing to the garnishment of his disposable earnings. Because the promissory note that was the basis for the Bank’s judgment against Mr. Klepal included an agreement for the garnishment of his disposable earnings in accordance with section 222.11, Florida Statutes (2007), we reverse the circuit court’s order.
