Yes, there's a whole lot that you would need to do before attempting to attach these workman's compensation settlement funds in Tennessee(if it's even possible), but you would first have to have your Virginia judgment registered or "domesticated" in the appropriae court of Tennessee before any further action on your part could be undertaken to enforce your Virginia judgment.
