An affidavit judgment is a type of court decision that occurs in civil cases, often in the context of debt collection. An affidavit judgment is granted when the plaintiff (the party bringing the lawsuit) provides sufficient evidence to support their claim, eliminating the need for a trial.
If within 15 days from the date hereof payment of the total amount of the fines is not received, or a new trial date requested as set forth above, a warrant will be issued for your arrest, charging you with failure to appear. The maximum penalty for failure to appear is a $500.00 fine and/or 3 months in jail.
RECOVERY OF PROPERTY OR VALUE AFTER JUDGMENT--DETINUE. (a) Action. (1) A person claiming the right to possession of personal property may file an action under this Rule.
Rule 12(b)(6), permitting a motion to dismiss for failure of the complaint to state a claim on which relief can be granted, is substantially the same as the old demurrer for failure of a pleading to state a cause of action.
RULE 2-612. CONSENT JUDGMENT The court may enter a judgment at any time by consent of the parties.
If the court finds that there is a substantial and sufficient basis for an actual controversy as to the merits of the action, the court shall order the judgment by confession opened, modified, or vacated and permit the defendant to file a responsive pleading. (f) Delay of Enforcement.
A creditor who obtains a judgment against you is the "judgment creditor." You are the "judgment debtor" in the case. A judgment lasts for 12 years and the plaintiff can renew the judgment for another 12 years.
§ 2-341. (a) Without leave of court. A party may file an amendment to a pleading without leave of court by the date set forth in a scheduling order or, if there is no scheduling order, no later than 30 days before a scheduled trial date.
§ 11-107. Rate of interest on judgments. (a) Except as provided in § 11-106 of this subtitle, the legal rate of interest on a judgment shall be at the rate of 10 percent per annum on the amount of judgment.
