Judgments

Judgments

A judgment is a decision of the court that orders a person to do something, which is typically paying money to another person. Common examples of money judgments include Orders for Judgment from Conciliation Court and Orders for Restitution from criminal cases.

Judgments are not always about money. They can also order a person to do something specific (for example, return property or follow a contract), or order a person to stop doing something.
