What type of paper work needed to file against a judgement against a member of your family? I would like to have the case reopened. Acting probona.

What is it that you are trying to accomplish? You can't file for a judgment, you can sue for money they you are owed and a court can issue a judgment. We really need more information to be able to help you beyond this.

If it is a smaller amount, you file in small claims court. But you said "reopened" who closed it, when and why?

If it is larger than small claims you will really need an attorney

You say you would like to have the case reopened? That indicates a judgment was issued. We need to know the details here to have any hope of meaningful help.

Sounds like trying to set a Judgment aside (family member or not). Need more info.
