What SCRA protections are available in legal proceedings?
While on active duty, servicemembers may not be able to go on leave to handle a legal or court matter. This is especially true for those stationed overseas. The SCRA includes a number of temporary protections for servicemembers facing this problem.

A Court Hearing Involving You Will Likely Be Delayed
You May Be Protected from Execution of Judgments, Attachments, and Garnishments
