Sell a court judgment in Alaska

Last updated:

Short answer: In Alaska, as in most states, a money judgment can usually be sold by assigning it to a buyer. Before you sell, check how much enforceable life the judgment has left, how interest accrues, and how the assignment is recorded. Facts below are marked verified only where we checked an official source.

Verification status: 0 of 4 topics checked against an official source. Not legal advice; verify with counsel.

How long does a judgment last, and can it be renewed?

Not verified from an official source. The official page we tried (https://www.akleg.gov/basis/statutes.asp#09.35.020) could not be checked automatically. Lead for counsel to confirm (unconfirmed, may be outdated): Execution may issue within 10 years of entry; after that, leave of court is needed (AS 09.35.020).

What is the post-judgment interest rate?

Not verified from an official source. The official page we tried (https://www.akleg.gov/basis/statutes.asp#09.30.070) could not be checked automatically. Lead for counsel to confirm (unconfirmed, may be outdated): AS 09.30.070 sets a variable rate: three percentage points above the Federal Reserve discount rate on January 2 of the year of judgment.

How do you file an assignment of judgment?

Not verified. We did not find an Alaska statute or statewide court form that sets out how an assignment of judgment is filed. In practice, assignees commonly file a signed, notarized assignment of judgment with the clerk of the court that entered the judgment, but procedure varies by court. Confirm with that clerk or counsel.

Do judgment buyers and collectors need a license?

Not verified from an official source. The official page we tried (https://www.commerce.alaska.gov/web/cbpl/ProfessionalLicensing/CollectionAgencies.aspx) could not be checked automatically. Lead for counsel to confirm (unconfirmed, may be outdated): Alaska licenses collection agencies under AS 08.24.
