What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Florida
I am almost losing a civil case and I will need to pay heavy monetary sanctions to the plaintiff. I have the following properties/income:
(I). The house in which I have been living with my family for more than ten years (the house is jointly on my name and my wife’s name).
(ii). an empty land which is on my name and my wife’s name
(iii). Money in the bank: this money is my salary earnings for the last several years.
(iv). I have a job from which I receive salary.
(v). I have wife and a child dependent on me.
(vi). All the above properties/money together will be value less than the amount of the monetary sanctions.
If I do not pay the monetary sanctions then what properties the court/plaintiff can take from me? Can the court/plaintiff put a lean on my salary?
Is it better for me to declare bankruptcy?
