Legal
Judgment
A judgment is a court's formal decision that a debtor owes a specific amount to a creditor. Obtaining a judgment converts a disputed or unpaid claim into an enforceable legal obligation and unlocks remedies such as wage garnishment, bank levies, and liens.
What Judgment means for creditors
A judgment turns a hard-to-collect account into an enforceable one. MSB works with its legal network to pursue judgments on qualifying balances, then uses post-judgment tools to recover.
