FAQ

Vacating a Florida Judgment Florida Rules of Civil Procedure 1.540 allows a defendant to vacate of judgment for numerous reasons including: mistake, inadvertence, surprise, excusable neglect, newly discovered evidence, the judgment is void or the judgment has been satisfied.

In Florida, a judgment lien has a limited lifespan of ten years from the date of its issuance by the court. ingly, the judgment creditor must renew the lien to keep the lien in effect beyond these ten years by filing a renewal affidavit with the Clerk of Court in the court responsible for the initial judgment.

The lien is good for 10 years, but the creditor can renew the judgment before it expires for another 10 years, meaning the lien will survive for a maximum of 20 years. The good news is that because of Florida's homestead protections, a judgment lien cannot attach to homestead property.

If they are not timely renewed, they expire. In CA that is 10 years. However, when a judgment lien has been recorded against your property, it has no expiration date. This means that it is possible to no longer have a judgment against you, but still have a judgment lien on your property.

55.081 Statute of limitations, lien of judgment. —Subject to the provisions of s. 55.10, no judgment, order, or decree of any court shall be a lien upon real or personal property within the state after the expiration of 20 years from the date of the entry of such judgment, order, or decree. History.

Prior to filing a lien, a lienor who does not have a direct contract with the owner, must serve the owner with a Notice to Owner. The Notice to Owner must state the lienor's name and address, and a description of the real property and the nature of the services or materials being furnished.

To attach a lien, the creditor must record the judgment with the county recorder in any Florida county where the debtor owns real estate now or may own real estate in future. For liens on personal property, the creditor files the judgment with the Florida Department of State.
