A lien can be placed on your property without your immediate knowledge. Typically, when someone places a lien on your property, they are required to notify you. However, communication delays can prevent you from being informed right away, especially if your mailing address is outdated.
In Ohio, a judgment would become dormant if execution was not issued upon the judgment for a 5 year period. Revised Code Section 2327.01 defined “execution” specifically as a writ of execution or a certificate of judgment lien.
This means that although Ohio's statute of limitations for judgment enforcement is at least fifteen years, in reality the best practice is to act at least once every five years so that your judgment does not become dormant. Often judgments are against more than one judgment debtor.
Upon timely filing of a notice of continuation of lien, the effectiveness of the original lien is continued for fifteen years after the last date on which the lien was effective, whereupon it lapses, unless another notice of continuation of lien is filed prior to the lapse.
This means that the government has 15 years to collect the taxes owed before the lien expires. Judgment lien: In Ohio, a judgment lien can be valid for up to 5 years. However, the lien can be extended for an additional 5 years if the creditor files a renewal notice before the expiration of the original lien.

Regardless of whether any payments are made, your judgment does not last forever. In Ohio, judgments go “dormant” in 5 years after the latter of: (a) when the judgment was issued, or (b) the last time it was used to create a lien, generate a seizure, obtain a garnishment order, or any other similar effort.
A judgment lien on real estate remains in effect for five years. You may not be able to collect a judgment right away through a judgment lien on real estate, but it will ensure that the property cannot be sold or refinanced within the next five years without dealing with your lien.
A judgment lien in Ohio will remain attached to the debtor's property (even if the property changes hands) for five years.
