QUESTION
Where do I apply payments for judgments in a civil action?
Asked on Nov 25th, 2012 on Civil Litigation - Oregon
More details to this question:
I have a civil judgment that includes a judgment amount as well as a separate judgment amount for attorney's fees and costs. When I receive a partial payment of that judgment as part of a payment plan, where do I apply the money first? To the standard judgment amount or the attorney's fees and costs?

Both are simple money judgments and accrue statutory interest from the dates of their respective entry. You can apply payments pro rata to the two judgments as you receive the payments.
