FAQ
"Proving Up" ing to the Texas Young Lawyer's Pro Se Divorce Handbook, a "prove-up" is a short hearing in an uncontested divorce. At the prove-up, "you appear before the judge and give evidence and testimony as to the terms of your divorce."
In this process, a judge (rather than a clerk) determines how much the plaintiff can collect after reviewing the amount requested by the plaintiff, which may require a court hearing. Once the default prove-up process is finished and a ruling by the judge is provided, the case is complete.
Do judgments expire in Texas? Judgments awarded in Texas to a non-government creditor are generally valid for ten years but can be renewed for longer. If a judgment is not renewed, it will become dormant. A creditor can request to revive a dormant judgment to continue to try and collect the debt.
