If no statement of exemption is received by the creditor on an earnings garnishment within ten days from the service of the notice, the creditor may proceed with the garnishment. Failure of the debtor to serve a statement does not constitute a waiver of any right the debtor may have to an exemption. If the statement of exemption is received by the creditor, the creditor may still cause a garnishment summons to be issued subject to sanctions provided in section 571.72, subdivision 6.
