There are "supplemental proceedings" in aid of execution that can be used to ask the debtors to disclose information about their income and their assets. These include sending written interrogatories (questions) for the debtors to answer, and asking the Clerk to issue an order requiring the debtors to appear before the Clerk for questioning. You will probably need help from a collections attorney for this.    Unfortunately, most people who are evicted have no assets which are available for execution and we do not have wage garnishment for unpaid money judgments. You probably will never see a dime. If the amount of your money judgment is small, it may not be worth the time or effort to go further. An experienced collections attorney can help you make that decision.

This is general legal advice only. You do not have an attorney-client relationship with Attorney Lynn E. Coleman without a signed retainer agreement and payment of any applicable fees.
