Warrant to Satisfy Judgment Child Support
Frequently Asked Questions and Instructions
What is a Warrant to
Satisfy Judgment?
A Warrant to Satisfy Judgment, also known as a Warrant of Satisfaction of Judgment,
(“WOS”) is a legal document that, when properly filed with the Clerk of the Superior Court
(“Clerk”), will close the judgment on the Superior Court Civil Judgment and Order Docket.
The filed WOS serves as proof that the judgment has been fully satisfied and is no longer a
lien on the debtor’s property.
Who should use
this document?
This document should be used for the satisfaction of a judgment connected to a child support
case either closed or currently monitored by Probation. It is the responsibility of the party
seeking a WOS to complete this document, obtain all required signatures and pay all filing
fees. If the child support judgment amount has been paid in full or otherwise satisfied, any
interested party may complete this document, but only the judgment creditor, or the legal
representative of the judgment creditor, is authorized to sign the WOS. The debtor does not
sign the document. The signature of the judgment creditor, or the legal representative, must be
witnessed by a notary public or attorney-at-law.
Who is the creditor?
Creditor: The party in whose favor the child support judgment was entered. The creditor is
also known as the plaintiff or obligee. The creditor signs the WOS.
Who is the debtor?
Debtor: The person against whom the child support judgment was entered. The debtor is also
known as the defendant or obligor. The debtor does not sign the WOS.
