Yep.

Missouri garnishment rules are found in Missouri Revised Statutes: Section 525. The maximum amount that may be held from a person's weekly wages, after withholdings required by law, is the lesser of: 1) 25% of the wages; 2) 10%, if the person is head of a family and a Missouri resident, or; 3) The amount by which the weekly earnings exceed thirty times the federal minimum hourly wage. Note that child support garnishment may be subject to a higher percentage of deduction.
