FAQ

Generally, a "foreign judgment" is one that is rendered in another state or country that is judicially distinct from the state where collection of the judgment is sought. Before a foreign judgment can be enforced, certain requirements must be met.

Generally, U.S. judgments cannot be enforced in a foreign country without first being recognized by a court in that foreign country.It can generally be said that non-default judgments not involving tort claims or punitive damages are more likely to be enforced.

To record a final judgment from another state, you need a certified copy of the judgment from the jurisdiction where it was entered. You can then file the certified copy in any county in Maryland, after giving proper notice to the debtor, and it becomes a valid judgment ripe for collection here.

In California, money judgments are enforceable by a writ of execution. In order to enforce the judgment lien, the judgment creditor must obtain a writ of execution, levy and then sell the real property at an execution sale.

The process requires registering a certified copy of the foreign judgment with the clerk of the court in the jurisdiction where you want to enforce the judgment. You will also need to file an affidavit attesting to certain facts, as specified in the court's procedural rules.

In Maryland, a judgment is only valid for 12 years. If you have not been able to collect your judgment within that time, you will have to renew the judgment to continue your collection efforts.

Hence, a decree passed by a superior court of a foreign country cannot be enforced in India if it contravenes an earlier conclusive judgment passed by a competent court in a suit between the same parties, as it is enforced as a domestic decree.
