Judgment enforcement is the legal process used to collect a court ordered amount from a debtor after a judgment is entered.
It may involve writs of execution, asset discovery, wage garnishment, bank levies, and other remedies depending on the debtor’s assets and the court rules in California.
Judgment enforcement includes procedures designed to compel payment and locate assets that can be used to satisfy the judgment while staying within statutory protections.
Key steps include asset assessment, obtaining enforcement orders, and choosing the appropriate mechanisms such as writs, garnishments, or levies while honoring exemptions.
Understanding common enforcement terms helps you work with your attorney to pursue recovery efficiently.
