The notice that you have received about a judgment concerning a short sale is that apparently you sold your home for less than what was owed on the existing loan or loans to a third party and that the difference has resulted in some lawsuit later on by the lender against you.A judgment is a serious situation in that your assets can be levied upon and taken away by the judgment creditor if the levied assets are not statutorily exepmt from a levy and that you timely file a claim of exemption concerning any levied asset.I suggest that you immediately consult with an attorney experienced in debt collection matters to assist you in this matter.Good luck.
