The Enforcers (podcast)

How do people who are owed millions in default judgments collect from obstinate defendants? 

When legal battles come down to damages, most consider the final judgment to show who won the game and by how much. But in a highly specialized area of law, that judgment is just the beginning when the losing team refuses to pay.

Jay Adkisson participates in this podcast on  “Courthouse News Services, which introduces the audience to judgment enforcement attorneys, a small specialized group that only numbers in the dozens.  Excerpt:

“Judgment enforcers are lawyers expected to file writs, subpoenas and anything of the like with the courts. But they are also private detectives, investigating where debtees hide their money.

“On the other side, Alki David. Born into a shipping family that owned Coca-Cola bottling plants, David has had a series of businesses himself, including a modeling agency, a video streaming website and a marijuana company with boxer Mike Tyson called Swissx. He lives in a $20 million Malibu beach house, but not for long due to a court order to seize that house to pay for a sexual harassment judgment against him.”
