How to obtain Abstract of Judgment
How can an abstract of judgment be obtained so that it could be filed with the Department of Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk in order to create possible liens against judgment debtor?
Is there a form and if so how could that form be obtained?
Thank you.

Fill out the form completely and take it to the court clerk with the applicable fee. Bring a self addressed stamped envelope.
Read "Collect Your Judgment," it's in the courthouse law library or you can purchase a copy from Nolo Press.
