T.D. Services Co. v. Ewing CA4/1
In this case a judgment creditor timely filed an application to extend the enforceability of his judgment under the provisions of Code of Civil Procedure section 683.110 et seq.; the judgment debtor moved to vacate the extension under section 683.170, and the trial court denied his motion.
We affirm. The judgment debtor did not establish any grounds for denying enforcement of the judgment within the meaning of section 683.170, and hence the trial court did not err in denying his motion. In particular, the judgment debtor failed to show the judgment creditor was the party to any subsequent settlement, which discharged the judgment. The fact that the amount of the extended judgment was smaller than what he owed did not prejudice the judgment debtor. We also reject the judgment debtor's claim that extension of the judgment was barred by the doctrine of laches.
