If a creditor seeks a judgment for wage garnishmentin New York State and the debtor is currently in a program to negotiate or pay back the debt should the debtor appeal the judgment?
Do you disagree that you owe the debt? If so, then try to appeal and prove you don't owe it. If you do owe it, and your trying to pay it, that arrangement is what the program your in (or company your working with) should be doing/handling with the creditor...who now has or wants a judgment. The judgment doesn't change the debt. That this is happening may cause you to question what the program your in is actually doing. have them prove to you they have made arrangements with your creditors and find out why this one doesn't find it adequate... The above may be different if the program is part of a formal Chap. 13 bankruptcy. However, the result is the same...you'll pay the debt...judgment or not.
How do you appeal an abstract judgment if you moved out of state but a minor child accepted the summons at the old address and you were never notified?
At this point in your case, to file an appeal, you must hire an attorney and it must be filed in the court of the original case unless, the case was in a federal/Supreme court. If it was in Supreme court, you must have an attorney file a motion to move your case to the new court. If this judgment was from a collection agency, make sure you challenge the debt being owed in your appeal. This means that the debtor has to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that you owe the debt detailed in the judgment. They must provide physical evidence (the contract you signed, a detailed listing of everything you bought, all the signed receipts for everything you allegedly purchased) to obtain a valid judgment. Ask your attorney to tell you about debt validation and how to challenge a debt.

The purpose of the bond is to maintain the status quo at the time of finial judgment.

Although the judgment is final, the appellate court could find some error in the district court's actions and reverse that judgment.
