They may simply have wanted an updated execution in order to recommence collection activity. A new execution will presumably include 9 years of judgment interest at a rate of 12% per year.

Probably so they can levy the execution as a lien against real estate in the name of the debtor.

If you are the judgment debtor, you might wish to retain an attorney to assist you with this.Good Luck!
