The goal of civil litigation is usually to obtain monetary recovery for damages suffered. Obtaining the judgment, however, may only be half the battle. Even if you are successful in litigation and obtain a judgment for monetary damages, you still need to enforce the judgment and collect the award. Honorable defendants pay a judgment voluntarily.
