Enforcement of Judgments

Enforcement of judgments refers to the legal process by which a winning party in a civil lawsuit ensures that the court's decision is fulfilled. After a court rules in their favor, they may need to take additional steps to collect any awarded damages or compel an action, such as a payment. This can involve various methods, like garnishing wages, seizing property, or placing liens on assets. The goal is to make sure that the resolution obtained through the court is effectively implemented and that the rights of the winning party are upheld.
