Enforcement of money judgments: examination.

Existing law authorizes a judgment creditor seeking to enforce a money judgment to apply to the court for an order requiring the judgment debtor to appear for an examination to furnish information to aid in enforcement of the money judgment. Existing law requires a corporation, partnership, association, trust, limited liability company, or other organization served with an order to appear for an examination to designate one or more persons who are familiar with its property and debts to appear, unless the order requires the appearance of a specified person, in which case that person shall appear. If an organization served with an order to appear for an examination fails to designate a person to appear, this bill would deem the order to appear to have been made to, and require the appearance of, specified persons named in the organization's most recent filing with the Secretary of State or, if the organization is not registered with the Secretary of State or its filings do not identify a natural person, a natural person identified by the judgment creditor as being familiar with the property and debts of the organization.
