In the United States, nobody can get a judgment against you without demonstrating to the court that you were served with the summons and complaint. A showing of deficient or fraudulent service is or should be sufficient to overturn a judgment.
Judicial records are open to the public unless exempt from disclosure, and where a respondent does not raise exemptions and the special committee cannot conclude any apply the records must be released.
You can look at your credit report at .annualcreditreport or you can go to the local clerk for the courts and search the county database. If there are judgments in other jurisdictions you would have to look there as well.
Judgment is a court decision that settles a dispute between two parties by determining the rights and obligations of each party. Judgments are classified as in personam, in rem, or quasi in rem. Judgments are usually monetary, but can also be non-monetary, and are legally enforceable.
A transcript of the judgment of a court of the United States rendered or filed within the state may be filed in the office of the clerk of any county and upon such filing the clerk shall docket the judgment in the same manner and with the same effect as a judgment entered in the supreme court within the county.
Once the Judgment is entered, the winner should serve a copy of the Judgment with "notice of entry" on the loser. This service starts the loser's time to appeal running.
If a Transcript of Judgment has been filed with the County Clerk, once the Debtor pays off the Judgment, the Creditor has a legal responsibility to prepare and sign a Satisfaction of Judgmentfor the benefit of the Debtor, so that all liens and record of Judgment can be removed from the County Clerk's office.
A motion for summary judgment is a legal procedure that allows a party to a lawsuit to ask the court to decide the case in their favor without a trial. The “moving party” claims that there are no genuine issues of material fact and that they are entitled to judgment as a matter of law.
A motion is a paper you can file in your case. It asks the court to decide something in your case. For example, if you need more time to answer a complaint against you, you can file a motion to extend the time to answer. If you do not have a case, you cannot file a motion.
Notice of Entry of Judgment or Order (CIV-130) Tells the parties that a judgment has been entered in a case. Service of this notice sets the start date of important deadlines regarding the ability to set-aside or challenge the judgment.
