Legal Question in Civil Litigation in California
Contract Breach/Judgement Collection
Finally filing unlimited civil nearing 4 year statute. Promissory note states simple interest 10% per year along with penalties 10% per year. Limit or cutoff to computing amounts requested on case forms? Also, Defendant boasts being ''judgement proof''. Doesn't own any non-exempt assets. We are curious about sources to locate any income, regardless of how small. Checking account, credit cards, retirement held by previous employer? Anything?

File your case to avoid being time-barred. Then hire a private investigator to locate assets. Credit cards are not assets. They are debts. Retirement accounts more than likely are exempt.
