About the small claims judgment
A small claims judgment is final. It is rendered by the judge from the bench, or in writing after being taken under advisement.
Judgment by default
A judgment may be rendered by default when the defendant took no part in the trial or failed to attend the hearing.
Revocation of judgment
A defendant can apply for the revocation of a judgment rendered by default, for a valid reason.
Voluntary execution of a judgment
The debtor has a legal time limit from the date of the judgment to pay the amount owed directly to the creditor.
