<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Helvetica;color:#333333">First, I have a Petition and an Order I've used to extend judgments that are nearly identical to those offered by Mark and Paul, and I too haven't used them in many, many
years. I probably cribbed them from the WA Practice Manual. <br>
<br>
But if I can interpose a follow up question, I would like to put out a question I've wondered about for many years: what is the procedure for extending a judgment an additional ten years? Is it merely ministerial (in which case why not just make the original
judgment good for twenty year). Or does it require notice and an opportunity to be heard by the judgment debtor?<br>
<br>
I've seen attorneys back in the day send a paralegal with the Petition and Order to Ex Parte in Seattle at noon of the final day of the first ten year period, simply presenting it to the Commissioner, without notice to the judgment debtor. In one particular
case I am familiar with, the outstanding amount of the judgment was wrong on the Petition and Order because the attorney had not been aware of certain payments made by the judgment debtor during the first ten year period, so going forward the principal amount
of the extended judgment was erroneous, and interest was accruing on that erroneous amount.<br>
<br>
Contrarily, the only appellate decision I've found describing how to proceed with extension is the State v. Morgan case of Div. 3, attached. The request for extension was brought by the Yakima County Prosecutor's Office on a criminal restitution judgment. In
it, the Prosecutor, IMHLO, proceeded the right way, in compliance with the Due Process Clause - the office brought a show cause motion, providing the judgment debtor with notice and an opportunity to be heard. Under the particular facts of the Morgan case,
this was complicated, naturally, by the judgment debtor's incarceration. But if that procedure had been followed in the case I am familiar with, the judgment debtor probably would have appeared and corrected the principal amount for the prior payments. If
you do not provide notice and an opportunity to be heard, is the extension vulnerable to attack on constitutional grounds?<br>
<br>
What has been your practice/experience dealing with others?<br>
