Enforcement of a Foreign Judgment in the U.S. Under U.S. law, an individual seeking to enforce a foreign judgment, decree or order in this country must file suit before a competent court. The court will determine whether to recognize and enforce the foreign judgment.
Recognition is essential because if a foreign judgment is not recognised, it cannot be enforced. To initiate the recognition process under REFJA, the judgment holder must file an application to the High Court for registration of the judgment. The application must be submitted within six (6) years of the judgment date.
The judgment holder shall mail a notice of the filing along with a copy of the foreign judgement, attestation, and affidavit referenced in Rule 1.202 to the judgment debtor and shall file proof of the mailing with the clerk of court.
