How to Enforce and Collect a Judgment -

Instructions for Enforcing a Judgment using Garnishment
If you are the plaintiff and you win the case, the court may order the defendant to pay you
money. If the defendant is ordered to pay you money, the defendant (called the “debtor” after
judgment, and you are called the “creditor”) may pay right away, or you may give the debtor
more time to pay. If the debtor does not pay, there are steps you can take to get the money.
This is called enforcing the judgment. There are fees for these steps.
If someone else owes the debtor money, you can ask the court to order that person to send
the money to the court office. The court will then pay you. This is called garnishment. For
example, if you know where the debtor has a bank account or where the debtor works, you
can ask the court to have the debtor’s bank or employer pay money to the court.
Step 1: COMPLETE and FILE a Notice of Garnishment form and an Affidavit for
Enforcement Request (Form 20P) with the court office. The clerk will stamp the notice.
There is a fee.
Step 2: SERVE. You then serve a copy of the stamped notice of garnishment and a blank
Garnishee’s Statement form (Form 20F) on the person or business that has the money (the
“garnishee”) owed to the debtor. You also serve a copy of the stamped notice and the affidavit on
the debtor. There are rules about how this must be done. See the Small Claims Court “Guide to
Serving Documents” at the court office or online at www.attorneygeneral.jus.gov.on.ca. You
can get copies of forms at the court office or online at www.ontariocourtforms.on.ca.
Step 3: TERMINATE. Once the judgment has been paid in full, the rules of the court require
you to serve a Notice of Termination of Garnishment (Form 20R) on the garnishee and the
court clerk. There are rules about how this must be done. See the Small Claims Court “Guide
to Serving Documents” at the court office or online at www.attorneygeneral.jus.gov.on.ca.
There is no fee.

– Guide to Getting Results” at the court office or online at www.attorneygeneral.jus.gov.on.ca.
