I had a judgement and garnishment that just expired. Can they renew the judgement? Is there a time limit? I thought it needed to be filed before it expired? I am in NV


Hi,

As per the Nevada wage garnishment law, ???the writ of garnishment served on the garnishee shall be deemed to continue for 120 days or until the amount demanded in the writ is satisfied, whichever occurs earlier???. Moreover, if the debt amount is still not completely repaid, then the creditors can get the writ of garnishment freshly re-issued.

I thought that after 6 years they needed to go back to court?

How do I renew a judgment?

A judgment creditor may renew a judgment which has not been paid by:

Filing an Affidavit of Renewal (link to form) with the court within 90 days before the judgment expires (See NRS 17.214(1)(a));

Recording the Affidavit of Renewal in the county recorder???s office within 3 days after the Affidavit of Renewal is filed if the judgment to be renewed is recorded (See NRS 17.214(1)(b)); and

Serving the Affidavit of Renewal on the judgment debtor within 3 days of filing. See Browning v. Dixon, 114 Nev. 213, 217 (1998).


What information must be included in the Affidavit of Renewal?

The Affidavit of Renewal must contain:

a. The names of the parties and the name of the judgment creditor???s successor in interest, if any (i.e. if there was an Assignment), and the source and succession of his title;

b. If the judgment is recorded, the name of the county and the number and the page of the book in which it is recorded;

c. The date and the amount of the judgment;

d. Whether there is an outstanding writ of execution for enforcement of the judgment;

e. The date and amount of any payment on the judgment;

f. Whether there are any setoffs or counterclaims in favor of the judgment debtor and the amount or, if a setoff or counterclaim is unsettled or undetermined it will be allowed as payment or credit on the judgment;

g. The exact amount due on the judgment; and

h. If the judgment was docketed by the clerk of the court upon a certified copy from any other court, and an abstract recorded with the county clerk, the name of each county in which the transcript has been docketed and the abstract recorded.
