Entry of judgment same as statement of decision?
No. A Statement of Decision is usually requested by the losing party after a bench (non-jury) trial before the judge alone. The Statement of Decision encompasses the ruling of the court, and addresses specific factual issues supporting the legal ruling. The Statement of Decision is important because it sets forth the required elements of each cause of action and basically sets the stage for any appeal. It is the court's Statement of Decision, but the court generally directs the prevailing party to prepare it. Generally, a proposed Judgment is submitted at the same time, but can be submitted later. Once the Statement of Decision is filed, all parties have a window of time to comment thereon or object thereto, and sometimes a hearing is held on the objections. Eventually, the court signs and issues its Statement of Decision, which the Judgment is then based upon. Once the Judgment is formally filed, either the clerk or often the prevailing party files a Notice of Entry of Judgment, which is then served on all parties. It is the Notice of Entry of Judgment which sets the date for subsequent court action, e.g., the parties have 30 days from Notice of Entry of Judgment in which to file an appeal.

If a notice of entry of judgment isn't filed, the judgment may not be officially recorded, which can delay the enforcement of the decision. This can also affect the timeline for appealing the judgment, as the clock for filing an appeal typically starts when the notice is filed. Additionally, without a formal notice, parties may lack clear communication regarding the status of the judgment, leading to potential confusion or disputes. Ultimately, it could hinder the ability to execute or enforce the judgment effectively.
