Abstract of Judgment

An abstract of judgment is a document that contains pertinent information contained in the judgment, such as the judgment amount, the date the judgment was rendered, and the identifying parties. Civil/Family Post Trial prepares this document, and when filed with the County Clerks office places a lien on the defendant�s real property. This judgment lien continues for 10 years after the date of recording, and must be renewed afterwards to continue on. The fee is to be paid to and the request form is located on the District Clerks website. You may purchase as many abstracts as needed, and one must be filed in each county that there is real property in. It will also appear on the credit report.

We will get and record at the courts the "Abstract of Judment" for you. If you are in our system already go to the Payment Page. If you have not filled out our eviction form please go to the Information Page fill out this form first.

WRIT of Execution (Judgment Recovery)

A Writ of Execution is a process issued by the District Clerk, which orders the Sheriff to collect a judgment against a defendant. The sheriff collects either money or sells property belonging to the defendant for as much of the judgment as possible. The execution is returnable in up to 90 days, and only one execution can be issued at a time. If after 90 days, the judgment is not paid, another can be requested. An execution can only be issued after 30 days of a final judgment, and cannot be issued if there is a bankruptcy in progress. There are several types of executions such as one for money, possession, sale of a particular property, delivery of certain property, and possession of certain property. The request for this can also be found on the District Clerk�s website. Once the Execution is prepared, it is forwarded to the requesting party, who in turn coordinates with the Constables office in getting it served. If an execution is not issued within 10 years of the previous one, it goes dormant and cannot be reissued unless renewed by the Court.
