The List

This is a list of documents that we demand from the judgment debtor.  If there is going to be a settlement after you obtain the judgment, this is where it happens....

This is where the squeaky wheel principal really gets going.  Once you have a judgment, you are entitled to demand each and every one of the following documents.  In fact, if a defendant will not produce these documents, assuming they exist, the defendant is in contempt of court and can be sent to jail for his contempt.  That is where the squeaky wheel really begins and is the step where many of our settlements occur.
