This is the most common method of enforcement and allows the judgment creditor to enforce the judgment by seizing the goods of the judgment debtor which can ultimately be sold to pay the debt. A High Court Enforcement Officer or county court bailiff can be instructed to seize and sell the debtors goods in order to satisfy the debt, legal costs and the costs of enforcement.

HCEOs and county court bailiffs have a series of rules to comply with in the enforcement of the court's judgment. The most important of these is that enforcement officers have no right to force entry into residential premises although they are entitled to force entry into commercial premises such as shops, offices, warehouses and even workshops at the debtor's home which are not attached to the main home.

For even more resources about how Sherbond delivers this method of enforcement we ask Judgment Creditors to visit the “How Does Sherbond Work?” part of this website. For Judgment Debtors we ask that they visit “Information Area for Judgment Debtors”. In both cases full information on the work of Sherbond Enforcement Officers is given.
