FAQ
A circuit court judgment entered before July 1, 2021 lasts for 20 years from the date of original entry, unless extended as described below. Virginia law lets you extend judgment liens for up to two successive 10-year periods.
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.
Circuit Court Judgments: Currently valid for 10 years, but creditors can renew them for 20 more years, giving them a total enforceability period of 30 years. Older judgments may be good for 20 years, and then it can be renewed.
Once a court judgment is entered against you, creditors can access powerful debt collection tools they weren't previously able to use, like wage garnishment. In many cases, this means they can begin collection efforts right away. This could include garnishing your wages, freezing your bank account, or seizing property.
