You need to file an action to domesticate the judgment in Georgia.

To add to Mr. Riddle's response, you need to find out where the judgment debtor resides in Georgia and you will have to domesticate it in that county.

If you would like to discuss any issues further, please feel free to contact my office. My contact information is below. Thank you.
