A court order levy is a legal process that allows a creditor to seize a debtor's property or assets to satisfy a debt. After obtaining a judgment in court, the creditor can request a levy, which involves a sheriff or other authorized official taking possession of the debtor's assets, such as bank accounts or personal property. The seized assets are then sold at auction or used to pay off the debt directly. It's essential for the creditor to follow proper legal procedures to ensure the levy is enforceable and complies with local laws.
