There are four major steps to collecting after a Massachusetts court judgment: Get a writ of execution. Locate the debtor's assets. Direct a deputy sheriff to seize the debtor's non-exempt assets. Have the sheriff sell off the debtor's non-exempt assets to satisfy the debt.
Ask the judge to set aside (cancel) the judgment Setting aside the default requires filing a motion. This is complicated and most people need assistance from a legal expert to do it correctly. Contact your local legal aid, county law library, court's Self-Help Center to see if they help.
After a default judgment has been entered in the court record, the Office of the Special Civil Part will mail you a postcard that shows the date and amount of the judgment entered by the court against the defendant.
A judgment can be fully satisfied by paying the judgment creditor (the person who has the judgment against you) in full and receiving from the creditor a Warrant of Satisfaction.
