Understanding the Process

How a Judgment Debtor Summons Works

STEP 01

Obtain a Court Judgment

A Judgment Debtor Summons can only be issued after you have obtained a court judgment and the debtor has failed to make payment.

STEP 02

Apply for a Judgment Debtor Summons

An application is filed with the court requiring the debtor to attend and disclose details of their financial circumstances.

STEP 03

Court Attendance

The debtor attends court and is examined on their income, assets, liabilities, employment, and other relevant financial information.

STEP 04

Assess the Debtor's Ability to Pay

The information disclosed helps determine whether the debtor has the means to satisfy the judgment debt and identifies any assets or income available for enforcement.

STEP 05

Consider the Next Enforcement Step

Based on the debtor’s financial position, you may decide to pursue further enforcement options, such as garnishee proceedings, a Writ of Seizure and Sale, or bankruptcy or winding-up proceedings where appropriate.
