Take them to small claims court and argue your case in front of a judge.  Whatever you do, don't lie to the judge about anything.

Your lawyer should have all these details...if he doesn't or won't divulge them to you contact the Courts where the judgement was passed.  Their records will indicate what the judgement actually was.  There may have been legal fees, penalties, bills of all sorts that had to be paid from this judgement so check these two sources before you jump to conclusions.  If you still have no luck, contact the Law Society in your area and explain your situation.  They can then contact the lawyer and request he disclose this information to you (of course why he wouldn't anyway I don't know).  If he chooses to avoid this he is risking being stricken from practicing...this can be considered fraud or misappropriation of funds and it carries serious consequences for the lawyer involved if proven.  Keep in mind that this particular situation could end up running a 1-2 year course while the society investigates so it isn't something that can be resolved or straightened out over night.\n\nYou'll  have to have all your documents in order to prove your case so anything that the lawyer presented you with regarding this suit should be copied and forwarded to the society if this is the route you go.  If it happens the lawyer was not as anal about correspondence with you as he should have been...document this fact as well...there are several key areas that lawyers are to conduct their business under and failing to do so correctly can show up as detrimental marks on their permanent record.\n\nGet onto it quickly however ... and don't back down if you think you've been had...\n\nGood luck

Are you certain you need to appeal?  If the decision was handed down in the last 30 days, you can file a Motion to Reconsider and state the reason(s) you think the judgement was faulty.\n\nFiling an appeal is difficult -- especially if you have no legal background.  Additionally, an appeals court will not hear "new" evidence and will only reverse a trial court's decision if there was procedural error or it was grossly against the weight of the evidence.

Go back to the same court that issued the judgment.  You  can ask the judge for a writ of garnishment, or a lien placed on any real property that the person owns.

First check with the bank as to why there is a delay, it may be that you may not have furnished appropriate details.\n\nElse you may seek remedy from Banking Ombudsman and not the Court.

AFTER you start the legal clock - by giving your Tenant a 3 or 5 Day Notice to Quit or Pay rent.....you then can get the ball rolling (very quickly) for an eviction hearing.....Once you receive a Judgment.....includes amounts due plus court costs......Make sure you provide the court the tenant's social security number....\n\nTake the original Judgment to your County Recorder's Office....Once recorded, the next time a credit bureau does a hard pull, your judgment will be added as a creditor to their credit report.\n\nDepending on your state, you can then send a demand letter for full payment of the judgment and when they don't pay, you get to garnish their wages!!!!! some states prohibit this, others allow it.\n\ngoogle your state and landlord/tenant laws.

Check with the post office, send a letter to the old address and ask to be notified of the forwarding address. Check with his references, they may know where he is, check with his job too.If he's still there, you may be able to send it there. If you have his social , you can go on a people finders site and find him. \n I believe you can also post in the paper for 3 consecutive weeks- then go to court and if he doesn't show it's his problem. After you get a judgment,he will appear sooner or later. \n One cool trick I found was to get references, call them and then ask if they would co-sign. If the references say no- do not rent to that person- they know him! If they say yes, I tell them it's not necessary, I just want to know how much they trusted them. Works great!!

Call the courthouse immediately, and speak with the county clerk.  If you have a lawyer, you will want to contact them first.  From my experience, the sooner you put in for a delay, the better.  Good Luck

You should contact your state or local landlord-tenant affairs office or state attorney general for information on your state's laws.  If you were served with a court document, which it sounds like you were, it will probably have a court date on it; and if you don't go to court on that day to oppose the case, the judge will automatically grant judgment to the landlord.  (On the other hand you may have been served with a 30 day warning notice, but if you got a summons, that means "be in court".)  In most states, as long as you bring the rent up to date, with late fees, as of the day of the court hearing, you can stay.  Be sure you get a receipt if you pay.  If you pay, you should call a day or two before trial to find out if the landlord has dismissed his case.  If he hasn't, you should seriously consider either going to court.

There is no way to "beat" the case now that you have already lost it.  It can be appealed, but that would cost more than paying it.  The best thing you can do is reach an agreement about paying off the judgment against you.  You are bound to pay off the judgment (I presume the court found you owed money and didn't order particular steps about how you should repay) but it can be hard to actually collect, and most people eventually agree to payment schedules rather than trying to force total immediate payment.

If you can not afford or obtain aid for a legal representative, consult your local librarian for references. When answering be truthful and do not leave out vitals. If really in need call on activist organizations that may offer assistance. If it is a criminal accusation or regarding divorce or child safety GET A LAWYER! SELL YOUR STUFF.

Start by contacting the Attorney General in the county that the order was signed by the judge.\n\nThey will take you through the process of filing a complaint and will collect it on your behalf.  This will cost you nothing....it is your right.  Most have success....even out of state.  I know of a case where the order was signed in Texas and was collected from the payor in Florida.\n\nIf you have access to some money, a private attorney will proably produce faster results, but the cost can be high.  The legal fees can be collected from the payor but a suit has to be filed and he need to have the resources to pay it...otherwise, it is just a judgement.  \n\nIn my opinion, the Attorney General is the best way.\n\nGood luck and I wish you the best.

I am a bankruptcy attorney in California.  If you had an attorney helping you with the bankruptcy, he or she will probably take care of this for you as a courtesy.\n\nYou should have received a copy of the discharge notice from the bankruptcy court.  Schedule and appoint with the nearest DMV office (faster service) and bring a copy fo the discharge order.  They may want to see proof that the civil judgment was listed as debt.  That should take care of things for you.
