After you win a judgment, you must then have the judgment docketed. This process is sometimes called “transcribing the judgment.” You can docket a judgment by filing an Affidavit of Identification of Judgment Debtor form with court administration in the county where you were awarded the judgment.
Rule 69. In aid of the judgment or execution, the judgment creditor, or successor in interest when that interest appears of record, may obtain discovery from any person, including the judgment debtor, in the manner provided by these rules.
How long does a judgment last? Judgments last for ten years and then can be renewed for another ten years. There is no limit to how many times a judgment can be renewed as long as the creditor takes the appropriate steps every ten years. So a judgment against you will potentially last forever.
