Practice question
An ordinary judgment remains unexecuted seven years after finality and entry. No exceptional delay, interruption or tolling is shown. The creditor seeks only a new motion as though the first five years never expired. Which is best?
- The ordinary post-five-year route is an independent action before prescription, not an unrestricted late motion
- Every judgment is enforceable by motion forever
- Seven years always equals less than five
- The debtor automatically becomes criminally liable
- The sheriff may privately restart entry
