Enforcement hearings
Magistrates Court - civil
An enforcement hearing uncovers financial information about a person who owes money (enforcement debtor) under a court order.The person owed money (enforcement creditor) can apply to the court for an enforcement hearing. This requires the debtor to attend court and complete a statement of their financial position. This process allows the creditor to find out the debtor’s ability to pay the financial obligation.
A creditor can start enforcement proceedings without leave from the court within six years of the money order or judgment being made.
