Quick Facts

A judgment creditor (the person or business that won the money judgment) files this form.
The form records the judgment details, the amount outstanding, the debtor’s name and address, and the type of assets to be seized.
File it as soon as you have a final judgment and the debtor has not paid within the statutory enforcement period (usually 30 days).
Submit the completed form to the District Court or Circuit Court registry that issued the original judgment, either in person, by post, or via the Courts Service e-filing portal if available.
Accurate filing triggers the legal power to seize assets; errors can delay enforcement or cause the order to be rejected, costing extra time and money.
1. Gather the judgment reference, creditor and debtor details, and a list of assets you intend to target. 2. Complete Part 2 – Orders: No.1C, ensuring the amount owed matches the judgment plus any interest. 3. Attach a certified copy of the judgment and any interest calculations. 4. Sign the form and pay any filing fee. 5. Deliver it to the appropriate court registry or upload it through the e‑filing system.
