652. No one may seize by garnishment the salary or wages of his debtor who, having produced in any office of the Court of Québec of the place of his domicile, residence or employment, a declaration in conformity with article 653, deposits regularly the seizable portion of his remuneration within five days following each payment thereof; nor may anyone seize the movable property which furnishes the main residence of his debtor, and is used by and is necessary for the life of the household, except for sums owing on the price or in the exercise of a right of revendication.
When, as a result of a change of domicile, residence or employment, the debtor produces a new declaration in a district other than that in which he previously deposited, the clerk who received such declaration shall give notice thereof to the clerk of the district in which the deposits were previously made; the latter shall then distribute forthwith the moneys in his possession and shall transmit the record to the clerk from whom he received the notice.
