First, you should bring an action to collect the monies. Once, you receive a judgment in your favor, then you must wait a statutory number of days to allow compliance with the judgment. If the person has not complied with the judgment, then you can ask the court to garnish his or her wages or collect his or her property to be sold, etc. via a motion.

Failure to pay a private debt is considered a civil matter and therefore most states prohibit the imprisonment of a person for failure to do so. However, if a civil court has rulled against you in a private monetory matter, then you are not classified as the judgement debtor, and the suer as the judgement creditor. This legal declaration creates additional options for persons attempting to recover a civil debt.\n\nDepending on the specific statutes of your state, the judgement creditor may now be entitled to undertake certain actions for the purpose of recovering the ordered amount, including the initiation of garnishments, liens, foreclosures, and other civil remedies. Interest will continue to accrue from the date of judgement at your state's then-current interest rate (subject to change) until the balance is paid in full.\n\nYou have the legal right to appeal such judgements, but it should be noted that there are time limits to do so, and there must be specific articulable grounds for doing so (not simply as a second opinion).

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.

It is an order issued by the court after a reversal of judgement.  It states that the sheriff must restore the disputed item to the defendant, or the proceeds if it was sold.

The Circuit Court has a docket, and your general judgment was not docketed...\n\nA docket is just a list of cases that are to appear before a judge. According to your question, my best answer would be that your case just wasnt put on the docket.

Summary judgment of any kind is a request that the court decide the case on the basis of the law and on any undisputed facts.  In some ways it is a mini-trial done on paper, in order to save the expense of a full trial if there are undisputed facts that don't need to be settled by a jury.\n\nSummary affirmance is a similar procedure for appellate court, in which a party asks the apellate court to quickly decide that the trial court was right, without the necessity of going through the full round of arguing and preparing the record and briefs at the appellate level.  In essence, the party asking for summary affirmance says there is no real argument that the court below was wrong.

Why on Earth do people answer these questions when they have no idea what they're talking about?  Sandytoes, asking a court clerk will do no good.  They are not permitted to give legal advice.\n\nThat having been said, why don't you give us some more details about the judgement.  What was it for?  When was it perfected?  Why do you say that it is expired.  What state do you live in?\n\nIn California, for instance, judgements expire after 10 years.  If the judgment has expired, it is probably not affecting your credit whatsoever.  \n\nThe only way to actually get it off your credit report is to petition the court to have it expunged.  Chances are real slim on that.  Otherwise, you're probably just going to have to deal with it being there.

No.  At this point you'll have to wait.  It may be that the judge is waiting for some outside information.  If it gets past a month beyond the 10-14 day deadline the judge set, you may be able to petition the court to render a decision, but if you do that, you may draw the ire of the judge.

Depending on the state, a deferred prosecution or adjudication means that the original charge is deferred to a time in the future and the outcome is conditional. Usually this means that if no other instances of criminal behaviour occur within that period of time (where you are arrested or charged with another crime), then the original charge is dropped. It depends greatly from state to state and court to court. In your case I would contact the jurisdiction where the original assault charge took place and ask them. Or, you may try having a background check run on yourself, this will show any of the convictions that your college is talking about. If you have not been contacted by anyone from the court where you were charged, there is a real probability that you have no conviction on the original charge and you are home free. You should contact an attorney just to ease your mind.

You are stuck with the judgement since you didn't show up to contest the suit against you. In a civil suit, if one side doesn't show up, the other side automatically wins.\n\nYou should have contacted the court and requested a continuance.  If this happens again, call the court and ask for the case to be continued.  If they want a form filed, you can do a google search and find the format for the continuance request for your state.

It depends on what their sentence is.  That is up to the courts.  \nFor instance... i was put on probation for felony prescription fraud for 3 years with deferred adjudicaton.  However, after doing 1.5 years i petitioned the courts to grant early release based on my performance.  I was really serious (and still am) about leading the clean life and steering clear of trouble now, and my comm officer knew that.  \n\nUnfortunately, regardless of whether my sentence was deferred i still have to check "yes" in that little box that asks "have you ever been arrested?" on an employment form.  \n\nIt's a hard lesson learned that will follow me for the rest of my life.\n\nThe way i understand it is, i will have to wait another 5 years to have the "arrest" not show up anymore... if i am lucky... and that is a big if.\n\nMoral of the story... stay away from drugs.

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

Like the last person stated, usually the judge will postpone a hearing when someone pertinent to the case is not prepared or available on that day.  Many times the lawyers are handling multiple cases at a time and scheduling conflicts arise.  It doesn't mean that the hearing won't go forward.

Adjudication Withheld - Non-conviction.\n\nThe court does not give a final judgment regarding the case. The defendant is given probation, a program or community service in which they have a specified amount of time to complete. If the defendant complies, the case may be dismissed, depending on the county/state. If they do not dismiss in that particular county/state, then the disposition remains adjudication withheld and the case is closed. However, if the defendant is found in violation, the case disposition may be changed and the defendant can be found in guilt.

What type of judgment?  Civil or criminal?  If it is civil, nothing.  You just get a civil judgment and you have to pay the money.  Criminal, you might get locked up.

You probably mean a Qualified Domestic Relations Order ("QDRO").  In most jurisdictions, a QDRO is usually an interim order entered in a divorce case that governs the rights of the parties until a final judgment is entered.  The length of time that a QDRO or any other judgment/order is valid depends on the laws of your state.  There may be 50 different answers to your question, so you need to consult a local attorney to get more information.
