In small claims court, a stipulation is a written agreement between the parties to a lawsuit that sets forth the terms of a settlement of the dispute. For example, it may provide for the payment of a fixed amount of money in installments over a period of time. If all payments are made the stipulation would ordinarily provide that the lawsuit is dismissed. However, if payments were not made as agreed, the Plaintiff would be entitled to a judgment for the unpaid amount.
The term "stipulation" is also sometimes used to refer to an agreement between the parties that certain facts exist or law applies to the facts of the case. Stipulations to facts eliminate the need to prove, by evidence (testimony or physical evidence) that the facts exist. Stipulations of law obviate disputes over what law applies to the facts of the dispute.

What does 'Stipulation for leave to plead' mean?
"Stipulation for leave to plead" is an agreement between the parties and the court that plaintiff or defendant has the right to plead an additional charge or claim of damage or defense other than the ones already stated in the complaint or answer if there is a need in the future. At times, parties have more than one claim against one another. Sometimes court rules require that all claims between the parties be in the same complaint, except where the circumstances surrounding the other claims arise out of some other situation that trying them both in one trial would be too confusing. Also, sometimes, parties do not know for sure whether there are any other claims but that they might be found out during the discovery process. If discovery reveals that plaintiff has another cause of action or that the defendant has a counterclaim or another defense, the stipulation to plead those other issues has been preserved and may be brought up even in the middle of the case.

I am not sure I understand your question. Do you mean what do you write when you file for the court? If so write the problem clearly and what happened. DO NOT LIE or EMBELLISH.

Can you place a lien against property owned by a family member if you paid the taxes on the property?
Sue them in small claims court. * Paying the taxes does not necessarily mean that the owner of the property would be legally obligated to repay the lender or said person would have any legal clam to the property in question. The party who paid the taxes needs to obtain a promissory note from the property owner showing the tax payment was a loan. That being the case, the lender might be able to recover money spent (as noted in a previous response) by suing the debtor in small claims or another state court, if the lender did not voluntarily repay the loan. Please be advised, the majority of US small claims courts are for monetary recovery only. Therefore, it might not be possible to execute a small claims judgment as a lien against real property.

What does a lawyer mean when he talks about a stipulated judgment in your child visitation case?
It describes an agreement to which both parties consent, without the necessity of it being first imposed by the court. If both parties DO agree, the judge signs off on it making it a court ordered judgement. Once sanctioned by the court, any subsequent change requires the parties to return to the court to change it. This mutually agreed-upon 'stipulated agreement' between the parties has been sanctioned by the court it becomes a court order, and is not subject to later change (even by mutual agreement) by the parties to the original stipulation.
