    Garnish your salary, attach your bank accounts, put a lien on your home, etc.

    These are all possibilities depending on the amount of the judgment and where you live.

    If it is medial bills try working out a payment plan or if it was a hospital bill
    And it is need based then you could apply for charity. Most hospitals have a charity fund but if it is a medical bill from a dr's office then try working out a payment plan
