So you won a huge court case? Big deal — can you collect? Judgment enforcement, and defense against judgment enforcement, are critically important to litigants. But enforcement sits in that twilight region in between the trial and the appeal, so most trial and appellate attorneys do not know a lot about it. But Joseph Chora does. Judgment enforcement is all he does.
We ask Joseph to share some of his best enforcement tips (a teaser: don’t file fraudulent-transfer actions; file a lien instead—it’s faster, cheaper, and it flips the burden of proof). And some of the biggest pitfalls (e.g., failing to make an enforcement plan early).
We also discuss:
- How to cut off the plaintiff’s right to judgment-enforcement fees — and if you’re the plaintiff, how to avoid this
- Increasing an appellate bond
- Enforce judgments against a trustee
- Pursuing alter egos
- Using evasions of judgment enforcement to get an appeal dismissed under the disentitlement doctrine
- How plaintiffs should safeguard against restitution awards if a satisfied judgment is reversed on appeal
