Judgments

Uncover Court Ordered Documents


A Judgment is a decision by a court that ends a lawsuit. When a court rules in favor of one party and concludes a lawsuit, it results in a judgment.

They usually result after lenders have tried multiple different methods to recover the original lien or UCC filing amount, but have not been successful, and decide to go to court.

Placing a judgment on an individual gives the lender more significant mechanisms to retrieve the court ordered final settlement amount.

CI considers any judgment as adverse information in the background investigation. Our investigative staff uses an extensive court case database and case documents to search and verify judgment information.

These inquiries can be a solid indicator of an individual’s payment or debt history, which could have a significant effect on the job position responsibilities.

A candidate's financial history is a significant factor in certain job roles, especially those involving financial management, fiduciary duties, or access to sensitive financial information.
