Creditors enforcing cancelled judgments and garnishing wages without notice
After a judgment is paid and officially cancelled, creditors and attorneys file petitions in distant jurisdictions to revive the debt without serving the debtor, leading to wage garnishment on satisfied obligations. Courts in different parishes may not cross-reference cancellation records, enabling procedural exploitation. Victims lose thousands in wages before discovering the error.
