Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in New York
judgment enforcement
can an attorney enforce a second judgment while the first one has never been vacated? i had two judgments for the same debt, one filed in 2001 and the second granted in 2007 while the first was still in place. is the enforcement of the second invalid?

Re: judgment enforcement
Although the second judgment would be deemed a nullity, it is still enforceable until such time that the court vacates the judgment.
