A lien is a right that prohibits the debtor from transferring their interest in a property until a debt is satisfied. The lien may be attached to any property or properties located within Maryland. Once filed, a lien will remain in force for 12 years unless removed by you after receiving payment from the debtor. <span class="law_cite">Read the Law and Rules: <a href="http://mgaleg.maryland.gov/mgawebsite/Laws/StatuteText?article=gcj&section=5-102">Md.

As many property owners do not want to have a lien prohibiting the transfer of a property, a lien can provide the necessary motivation to the debtor to pay the debt. After 12 years, the lienholder, is permitted to renew the lien as long as the debtor has not paid the money owed under the judgment. <span class="law_cite">Read the Rules: Md.

Wages cannot be garnished if the judgment debtor’s disposable wages are less than 30 times the federal minimum hourly wage per week ($217.50 per week). In any event, no more than 25% of your disposable wages for a week can be garnished. For an in depth discussion of exemptions, see the article on <a href="/garnishment">Garnishments</a>.</p> <p>Once a garnishment is sought by a creditor and served upon the employer becomes known as the “garnishee.” The garnishee must file an answer within 30 days of being served with the writ or risk being held in contempt and possibly being required to pay attorney’s fees and court costs.  While the garnishment is in effect, the employer must remit all garnishable wages to the creditor (or to the court, if the employer or debtor has asserted a defense). <span class="law_cite">Read the Law: Md.

In order to help creditors enforce the judgment, a creditor may request an examination before the Court. Under this procedure, the Court will order the debtor to appear before a judge and testify, under oath, about their assets and money resources. From there, a debtor can request a Writ of Execution, as explained below, to seize the property and use the proceeds from the sale to satisfy the judgment.
