Appellate Practice Attorney serving New York, NY
I don't know the specific statutes in North Carolina, but all jurisdictions have collection laws which allow you, once you have obtained a judgment against a debtor, to: (i) take post-judgment discovery to find out what assets and sources of income the debtor has; (ii( garnish the debtor's wages or other sources of income; (iii) restrain and collect from the debtor's liquid assets, such as bank accounts; and/or (iv) foreclose upon the debtor's hard assets, i.e. have them sold and the proceeds used (once certain fees are paid off the top) to satisfy the judgment.
