A tax warrant is equivalent to a civil judgment against you, and protects New York State's interests and priority in the collection of outstanding tax debt. A judgment lien arises when a court rules you owe a debt, allowing the creditor to claim your nonexempt property until the debt is paid. The lien secures the creditor's priority and allows them to foreclose on the property if the debtor fails to pay the debt. Judgment enforcement against personal property often is difficult.
