What is Judgement Enforcement and Execution?
Judgement enforcement and execution refer to the legal process of ensuring that a court’s decision is carried out. This typically involves collecting debts, seizing assets, or taking other actions to satisfy a court-ordered judgement. In Poland, this process is governed by the Code of Civil Procedure (Kodeks Postępowania Cywilnego) and involves specific legal procedures that must be followed to ensure compliance with the law.
Why is Judgement Enforcement Important?
Obtaining a court judgement in your favor is only the first step. Without proper enforcement, the judgement may remain unfulfilled, leaving you without the compensation or resolution you deserve. Effective enforcement ensures that:
Debts are collected.
Assets are seized or transferred as ordered by the court.
Legal decisions are respected and implemented.
How Judgement Enforcement Works in Poland
In Poland, the enforcement of court judgements is carried out by enforcement officers (komornik sądowy), who are authorized by law to execute court orders. The process typically involves the following steps:
1. Submission of the Enforcement Request
To initiate enforcement, you must submit an enforcement request to the appropriate court or enforcement officer. This request must include:
A certified copy of the court judgement.
Details of the debtor’s assets (if known).
Any other relevant documentation.
2. Identification of Debtor’s Assets
The enforcement officer will identify and locate the debtor’s assets, which may include:
Bank accounts.
Real estate properties.
Vehicles or other movable assets.
Wages or other sources of income.
3. Seizure and Sale of Assets
If the debtor fails to voluntarily comply with the judgement, the enforcement officer may seize and sell their assets to satisfy the debt. The proceeds from the sale are then used to pay the creditor.
4. Distribution of Funds
Once the assets are liquidated, the enforcement officer distributes the funds to the creditor, deducting any applicable fees or costs associated with the enforcement process.
5. Completion of Enforcement
The enforcement process is considered complete once the debt is fully satisfied or all available assets have been exhausted.
