The enforcement division plays a pivotal role. It is the entity in charge of serving and implementing rights through the enforcement of judgments and court orders marked by the executive wording. The division has the power to enforce reconciliation agreements approved by the judiciary, and certified instruments deemed as a judgment under the law, by forcibly enforcing the judgment against a judgment debtor (obligor) through any means allowed by law to ensure enforcement. The Civil Procedure Law regulates the powers of the enforcement judge and the provisions of forcible enforcement.
