Wages due a seaman may be attached by the court for the _______________.

A support of a minor child
B payment of monthly bills
C payment of creditors
D All of the above
AI Explanation

The correct answer is A) support of a minor child. Wages due a seaman may be attached by the court for the support of a minor child. This is in accordance with federal maritime law, which allows courts to garnish a seaman's wages for the purpose of providing child support. The other options, such as payment of monthly bills or creditors, are not valid reasons for the court to attach a seaman's wages under maritime law.
