The judgment is easy. A levy on bank or personal assets is the hard part. The problem with characters like this guy is that he has learned how to hide assets. Bank accounts, etc. Upon receipt of a judgment, he has 30 days to appeal or to pay. After that he is fair game. Since he receives accounts payable (like from title co/lenders). This has now become subject to the levy.
I would review the TC he has deal with, make a speculative call to determine if he has any outstanding invoices that are soon to be paid by them. If he does, issue your levy to them. If he doesn't, well here is your next step.
On the judgment, it will list him and his company as having a judgment. Well after your 30 days, request an abstract of judgment from the same courthouse. When you receive this, send this nice handy dandy item to the county recorder. This let's the world know that he owes you money. If he has property, this will pop up on his preliminary report. If he goes for loans, this will pop up on his credit report.
Also, you will recieve solicitations from collection agencies who specialize in collecting on judgments. Turn the account over to them and let them harass him. Sometimes it is not about the money, it becomes the principle of the thing. |
