Generally when a defendant does not appear in a creditor civil suit, the court will award the plantiff a default judgment against the debtor. The judgment creditor can then execute the writ in the manner allowed by the laws of the judgment debtor's state. If a vehicle is not protected under the exemption amount allowed a judgment creditor can place a lien on the vehicle and request a forced sale. However, this is rarely done, as it is time consuming, complicated and seldom results in the judgment creditor recovering all monies owed. Please be advised, a judgment creditor has several options for enforcing the judgment, the preferred method is wage garnishment or bank account levy, followed by the seizure and sale of other non exempt property owned solely by the judgment debtor.
