Judgment Enforcement – The Step-by-Step Course
And, as a Judgment Enforcer (JE) you’ll know the best ways to locate judgments, locate
assets, take assignment, and get the money. You don’t have to call or write to anyone.
What is a Judgment? It’s a decision by the court.
Our judgments are for money. The above judgment was rendered due to breach of
contract. Look closely and you’ll see there are 2 JD’s (judgment debtors) because there are
2 separate judgments. One is against Concepto Design Group, and the other is against
Francisco Mendiola. Do you see it?
Here’s anothere typical court case: After an auto accident Mr. Smith, the plaintiff,
sues Mr. Jones the defendant for $19,000 for car repairs. Mr. Smith wins. The court
decides in his favor, judging that he is owed $19,000 and $750 in costs from Mr. Jones.
In this case Mr. Smith is now the judgment creditor—the JC (the person who is
owed the money). Mr. Jones is the debtor or judgment debtor—the JD (the person
who owes the money).
Other case examples might be:
1) where the court decides that Mr. Anderson (the creditor) is owed $4000 from RM
Remodeling, Inc. (the JD) for breach of contract; or
2) where the court decides that Bob Baker Chevrolet (the JC) is owed $11,500 from
Mary Farmer (the JD) for nonpayment of leased vehicle fees.
