FAQ

A foreign judgment is any judgment of a court of any other state in the United States in a civil action which was not obtained by default in appearance or by confession of judgment.

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.

Domesticating a foreign judgment in California to put it simply, is relocating a court ruling's jurisdiction. A judgment ruled, in the case under California law, can transfer from California's ruling jurisdiction to another. This process is domestication of a foreign judgment.
