DO I GET MY MONEY BACK AFTER I FILE FOR CHAPTER 13. GARNISHMENT FROM MY PAYCHECK

So, I'm in the middle of filing bankruptcy & I was just served papers from a creditor to allow garnishment of my wages. The thing is, it said on the papers that I had 14 days from the date of the notorization to respond. I don't know how that worked out, but I got served 10 days past my deadline (when I was supposed to have responded by). So, now, since it's too late for me to respond, how long do I have until my wages are garnished? Or can they even garnish my wages while I'm in the middle of my bankruptcy?
