What if you have a judgment against you but don't have the money to pay?

If you can't pay the judgment, it will continue to accrue interest at a rate that is generally established by the state legislature each year. State law will provide that the judgment is enforceable for a fixed number of years, the number being established by the statutes of the state in which the judgment is entered. There will also usually be a process by which the judgment creditor can renew the judgment's life for one or more successive periods.

Huh? Take money from what...one obligation to pay another? It is their obligation to pay the judgment AND to pay employees (and rent, and insurance, and utilities, etc). It is not the employees responsibility, nor the landlords, nor the insurance company, nor the utility.

Judgment againts your wife for 40.000 she will not pay as odered by the court what can you do?
I am not a lawyer but, if your wife has been ordered by the court to pay up, she has to pay up. If she fails to pay, start by contacting the clerk of courts and tell them the situation. It won't cost you any money assuming she truly has a judgment against her.

Can you write off a judgment on your taxes?
I assume the judgment is against you. If you held the judgment, you will have received money and that may or may not be income. If you pay a judgment against you, whether or not you can "write it off" will depend entirely on what kind of judgment it is. Also, you may be able to write it off for state tax purposes but not federal and vice versa. Usually, paying most judgments does not affect taxes.
If you are in an auto accident and do not have enough insurance and have no money to pay if they sue you how will this effect a lawsuit against you?
Even if you have no insurance or money, someone can still sue you for damages. However, depending on the collection laws of your state, you may be "judgment proof," unable to pay any judgment rendered against you. A lawsuit may result in a judgment against you, which in essence is just a piece of paper that says you owe the plaintiff x dollars. But collecting on the judgment is a completely different animal. Frankly, I would never sue anyone with no insurance or money b/c it is not worth the time and money just to get a piece of paper that is uncollectible. Hopefully, the plaintiff trying to sue you will realize that. Good luck.
