Legal Question in Real Estate Law in California

Judgement clear up

I make payment to clear the judgement to the defendant's lawyer through online banking and request the acknowledgement to clear the judgement but the defendant's lawyer said they have to verify the payment (the payment was sent with the case number on it). What is the easiest way to clear it up with less hassle? Thanks.

Re: Judgement clear up

The contents of the letter you have to write -- it is called Demand for Acknowledgement of Satisfaction of Judgment -- are spelled out in Code of Civil Procedure Section 724.050. Search for it on google or www.leginfo.ca.gov . Send it certified mail RRR or, better, have someone else serve it on the attorney and sign a proof-of-service declaration.
