I won a judgement in Los Angeles, and would like to know how I go about placing it on the persons credit report. I've heard that it's called a fieri facias.

This may help only to explain what the terminology means:[
The name of a writ of execution that directs a sheriff to seize and sell the goods and chattels of a JUDGMENT DEBTOR in order to satisfy the judgment against the debtor.
In its original form, the writ directed the seizure and sale of goods and chattels only, but eventually was enlarged to permit levy on real property, too; largely synonymous with a modern writ of execution.

You don't need to do anything. The credit reporting companies will check court records as a matter of course and post judgements.
What do you think that will get you though?
