I have a 10-year old money judgment which has not been satisfied. Debtor has "nothing", lied in the info subpoena, but still answered it, so cannot be arrested. There's no property, cars, bank account, employer(s), wages to garnish, etc. Debtor has been living in a condo for the past 8 yrs but it's in someone else's name. I'm sure utilities are also in that person's name. Debtor is a heavy smoker, has a cell phone, drives a late model car (not in his name), has been seen entering and leaving a business where he spends a day going in and out, possibly delivering something.
Deposing debtor and his "employer" is useless because there's likely no record of him being legally employed. Nobody will testify against him and it's not illegal for him to enter and exit that business any time. There's a connection between debtor's residence and place of business where he "spends his days" for the past 6-7 yrs or so - same owner. There's no relation between debtor and the business owner, other than financial. Debtor has other sources of income which he receives from third parties and simply offers financial incentive to others to cover for him. Debtor had a fax line setup at that business location, in his name. That's how he was discovered after disappearing for many yrs. Debtor disconnected the number after i faxed request for payment. I sent letters, emails, faxes to his "associates". Still no luck.
I contacted my local courthouse. Was told to write a letter to the judge to see if maybe the case can be reopened or i can bring debtor to court again and make him explain his sources of income and living arrangement. The reply was to file writ of execution with Trenton, because i had docketed the judgment earlier.
Filing writ of execution is useless because there's no bank account, no property, no car, no employment record, no nothing. Debtor claimed he has no income and nothing else in info subpoena. He can say the condo is not his and everything inside does not belong to him, therefore it's not his personal property that sheriff can take and sell. The car is not registered to him, simply "borrowed". Debtor is a legal resident/possibly a citizen with a ss# and driv. license.
Spoke to local detectives, prosecutors office, no luck. Was told millions of cases like this. It's not illegal what debtor does and nothing can be done about it.
Would it help to do video surveillance and take everything i have to .... i have no idea where. I'm thinking IRS but that won't get me my money back. Any other way to harass debtor into paying? I don't want to stalk him or make phone calls because he can get a restraining order. I keep distance.
