In general, judgments are enforceable for a certain number of years, typically around 10-20 years depending on the jurisdiction. After this time period, the creditor may need to take steps to renew or extend the judgment to continue enforcement actions. It's advisable to seek legal advice specific to your situation and jurisdiction for accurate information.

What is the time limit for a judgment to be filed in California?

There are not specific SOL's that apply to judgments in any US state. Judgments are granted for a specified amount of time usually from 5-20 years, with the majority of judgments being renewable. They become invalid if the judgment creditor fails to renew or the court denies the motion for renewal. Judgments are extremely damaging to a credit rating and continue to accumulate interest until they are paid or settled
