INFORMATION FOR THE JUDGMENT CREDITOR
(the party in whose favor a money judgment has
				  been entered)
1. Contact the judgment debtor (either the
				  party your sued or that party's attorney if the party was represented by an
				  attorney) and request payment directly.
2. If the judgment debtor fails to pay within
				  30 days, then contact (by phone or in person) either a City Marshal or the
				  Sheriff in the county where the judgment debtor (the party who owes you money)
				  may have property. If you do not know where the judgment debtor has property,
				  then you must contact a City Marshal or the Sheriff in the county where the
				  judgment debtor resides.
3. Be prepared to provide the City Marshal or
				  the Sheriff with the following information:
a) The CC# of your case, which appears above,
				  including the year and the county in which the case was tried.
b) Your name, address and telephone
				  number.
c) The name and address of the judgment
				  debtor.
d) Your knowledge, if any, of the name and
				  address of the judgment debtor's employer.
Fees paid by you (the judgment creditor) to
				  the City Marshall or to the Sheriff in an attempt to collect the judgment will
				  be added to the total judgment.
4. In addition to these rights, a judgment
				  creditor may:
a) request the issuance by the Commercial
				  Claims Clerk, at nominal cost, of information subpoenas where a judgment
				  remains unsatisfied for 30 days;
b) bring an action to recover an unpaid
				  judgment through the sale of the judgment debtor's real or personal
				  property;
c) bring an action to recover an unpaid
				  judgment through suspension of the judgment debtor's motor vehicle license and
				  registration, if the underlying claim is based on the debtor's ownership or
				  operation of a motor vehicle; and
d) notify the appropriate state or local
				  licensing authority of an unsatisfied judgment as a basis for possible
				  revocation, suspension, or denial of renewal of a business license.
THE JUDGMENT IS VALID FOR A PERIOD OF 20
				  YEARS. IF THE JUDGMENT IS NOT COLLECTED UPON THE FIRST ATTEMPT, FURTHER
				  ATTEMPTS TO COLLECT MAY BE MADE AT A LATER DATE.

SPECIAL INFORMATION REGARDING DEFAULT
				  JUDGMENTS
If you did not appear in court on the day the
				  trial was held, you are defaulting party. A judgment may have been taken
				  against you even though you were not in court. If that is so, you may apply to
				  the court in writing and ask to have the default judgment opened. You must give
				  the judge a reasonable excuse for your failure to appear in court. The judge
				  may open your default judgment and give you another chance to go to
				  court.
