Supplementary process

Supplementary process is a method of debt collection where the debtor who has a court money judgement against him is brought into court, "requiring the judgment debtor to appear at a time and place named therein and submit to an examination relative to his or its property and ability to pay."[1] The process is common in Massachusetts under M.G.L. Ch. 224, s. 14. If the debtor does not appear in court, a Capias ad respondendum may issue where a sheriff brings the debtor into court to respond.
