abstract of judgment

Read a random definition: comparative-negligence doctrine

A quick definition of abstract of judgment:

An abstract of judgement is a document that summarizes a court's decision. In a civil case, it shows how much money the losing party owes the winner, including interest and court costs. It also creates a lien on any property the losing party owns in the county where the abstract is recorded. In a criminal case, it is an official record of the conviction and sentence that helps prison officials carry out the punishment.

A more thorough explanation:

An abstract of judgment is a document that summarizes a court's decision in a case. It can be used in both civil and criminal cases.

In a civil case, an abstract of judgment is a document that shows how much money a judgment creditor is owed by a judgment debtor. It includes the amount of the judgment, any interest that has accrued, and any court costs. Once an abstract of judgment is recorded, it creates a lien on any real estate owned by the judgment debtor in the county where it is recorded. This means that if the debtor sells the property, the creditor will be paid from the proceeds of the sale.

For example, if a person wins a lawsuit against another person and is awarded $10,000 in damages, they can obtain an abstract of judgment to ensure that they are paid. If the debtor owns a house, the creditor can record the abstract of judgment with the county recorder's office, which will create a lien on the property. If the debtor sells the house, the creditor will be paid from the proceeds of the sale.

In a criminal case, an abstract of judgment is a document that summarizes the defendant's conviction and sentence. It is used to inform prison officials about the conviction and sentence and to provide authority for carrying out the sentence.

For example, if a person is convicted of a crime and sentenced to five years in prison, an abstract of judgment will be prepared to inform the prison officials about the conviction and sentence. The abstract of judgment will also be used to ensure that the sentence is carried out correctly.

@BulbasaurNoLikeCardio: they blaimed it on their IT team for not updating it as out of stock when I paid but like buying something in stock in September then being told I won't get it until mid January is pretty wild. I do not hunt anymore but their mistake would of caused me to miss the entire season. If it wasn't so hard to get left handed ARs I would of gone elsewhere

You will see some A waves next week, just before Thanksgiving. Schools like to give people things to talk about over the holidays.
