Any judgment (exception small claims) can be inacted as a lien against real property. However, if the amount is disproportionately small compared to the property value, it can be appealed. Actually it can be appealed almost anytime, if the defendent wishes to pursue the matter.

Can the State of New York file a judgment for an alledged student loan debt that is 37 years old?
Proof would have to be presented that the debt was valid before
a judgment could be entered against the debtor. Since a judgment
was entered then acceptable validation must have been provided to
the court. Student loans both state and federal do not have SOL's,
so the judgment is more than likely valid and enforceable.

If a judgment lien against a home is never collected against does it ever come off?
i can only speak for new york, but i am sure most states are
similar...in NY a judgment is enforceable against real property for
10 years...it remains an individual debt for 20 years...it all
depends on the statute in your particular state...my
suggestion...call a nationally recognized title company in your
area and speak with a title officer...the only thing that makes a
judgment go away is a document called a Release or Satisfaction

leaving, that puts you at a distinct disadvantage in Court, but

Can a NY court issue a judgment against you for a debt if you live in FL?
The question of whether or not an out of state court can issue a
judgment against you if you live in another state involves where
you established the debt. Florida does not recognize a number of
unlicensed "Fly by night" brokers or workers who establish debts in
Florida and sue for money in other states. Florida will not
recognize such law suits and judgments. Florida only recognizes
people licensed to work in Florida. In fact, many of such con men
fill Florida's prisons. Florida is glad when they go back to New
York. However, if you purchased a legitimate product or did
something else to cause a lawsuit in New York and the lawsuit
occurred in New York and which causes New York to have
jurisdiction, it does not matter if you are a resident of Florida,
yes, it is valid.
