I have a judgment from another state, but the defendant lives in Texas. Now what?

If you have a judgment, either from another federal or state court, the first thing you need to do is confirm that the judgment is final. The next step is to register the judgment in Texas. Once the judgment is registered in Texas, the defendant must be notified of the judgment transfer, pursuant to the Texas rules. Once the notice period has lapsed, you can enforce the judgment in Texas, under Texas law.
