In Georgia, a property lien can be used to collect a court judgment. Here's how it works.A Georgia judgment lien attaches to all judgments obtained in Georgia courts, but the creditor must take an additional step to "perfect" the judgment lien. For most people, litigation ends when the party "wins" or obtains a judgment in Georgia that is in its favor. Creditors cannot take your home in Georgia, but they can place a judgment lien on it. To do this, creditors must first get a valid court judgment. The answer to your question is yes. Now, can that lien be challenged for lack of notice? The judgment of a court having no jurisdiction of the person or the subject matter or which is void for any other cause is a mere nullity. Georgia citizens who owe money to a creditor in default on their payments may be sued for the balance owed.
