They have a judgment against her and they've siezed the bank account to make her wake up and DO something to settle the debt. If she had student loan money in that account, that money is 100% EXEMPT and she MUST appeal the bank levy and show that the money is from a student loan. She needs to call the court and find out what she needs to do to appeal the levy, she might have to file a Motion to Quash.

She will have to come to some arrangement to pay this judgment - and she's probably going to have to open a new bank account somewhere else if the loan money has to be direct deposited.
