Florida Motion For Final Judgment In Continuing Garnishment is the process by which a creditor may seek to collect a debt from an individual or business. The process begins with the creditor filing a complaint with the court and then obtaining a writ of garnishment. The writ of garnishment is then served on the debtor to collect a specified amount of money from the debtor’s wages or bank account. If the debtor fails to comply with the court’s order, the creditor may then file a Motion for Final Judgment in Continuing Garnishment. There are two types of Florida Motion For Final Judgment in Continuing Garnishment: Default Judgment and Summary Judgment. A Default Judgment is granted when the debtor fails to respond to the complaint or appear in court. A Summary Judgment is granted when the debtor does not dispute the facts of the case and the court finds that the creditor is entitled to judgment. In both cases, the court will enter a Final Judgment in Continuing Garnishment that orders the garnishee to pay the debt to the creditor.

Judgment Liens on Personal Property A judgment becomes final once the time for rehearing has expired and no motion for rehearing is pending ( if no stay of the judgment or its enforcement is then in effect). See § 55.202(2)(a), Florida Statutes.
Final judgment is the last decision from a court that resolves all issues in dispute and settles the parties' rights with respect to those issues. A final judgment leaves nothing to be decided except decisions on how to enforce the judgment, whether to award costs, and whether to file an appeal.
The final judgment is the Judge's final decision in the case as recorded in the files kept in the Miami-Dade Clerk of Courts office.

After locating real or personal property to be levied and recording a judgment lien in the county in which that property lies, you will need to obtain a writ of execution. You must request the writ of execution from the clerk of court that issued your Final Judgment by motion.
A final judgment issued by a court establishes that the court has determined one party to be the winner and usually entitled to some amount of money. While the judgment itself does not require payment of money it allows the holder of the judgment to use the court's power to get money or property.
The statute provides that a creditor begins the garnishment process by filing a short motion with the court (?Motion for Writ of Garnishment?) and paying fees and deposits to the clerk of court. The clerk then issues the writ. The judgment creditor is not required to seek a judge's permission or a court order.
Once you have located property the sheriff can seize, you take your judgment to the Clerk of the Court that issued the judgment and ask for a document called a Writ of Execution. This tells the sheriff to seize property of the judgment debtor to satisfy your judgment.
