Enforcing a Judge Ruling
Dear Biggerpockets members
A section 8 tenant of mine filed a conversion lawsuit against me claiming I was responsible for her missing belongings worth $100,000. I got a lawyer, she lost the case and I asked the judge for judgement ordering the plaintiff to pay my lawyer fees. I received the judges ruling in my favor today. However my lawyer says she’s not a collections attorney to be able to collect the money from the plaintiff. If someone knows what I can do in order to enforce the ruling and recover my expenses please advise. How about having the ruling put in her credit report? Can this be done? How?
