Title: Civil Practice and Procedure: Implementation of Assembly Bill 1119 in Small Claims Cases

Summary: Assembly Bill 1119 (Stats. 2023, ch. 562), enacted October 8, 2023, requires the Judicial Council to adopt and revise forms as necessary to implement a new procedure for debtor’s

examinations used to enforce judgments concerning consumer debts. To implement AB 1119 in small claims cases, the Civil and Small Claims Advisory Committee proposes adopting two

mandatory Small Claims forms and revising four forms. The committee also proposes revisions to the general civil judgment form to reflect the new law. Another proposal revising Judicial

Council Enforcement of Judgment forms to implement AB 1119 has already circulated for public comment.
