Full text of Guam Guam Code Annotated § 21608 — Satisfaction of a Judgment., with citation guidance and answers to common questions.
§ 21608. Satisfaction of a Judgment.
Satisfaction of a judgment may be entered in the clerk's docket upon an
execution returned satisfied, or upon an acknowledgment of satisfaction filed
with the clerk, which may recite payment of the judgment in full or the
acceptance by the judgment creditor of any lesser sum in full satisfaction
thereof, made in the manner of acknowledgment of conveyance of real
property, by the judgment creditor, or by his endorsement on the face or on
the margin of the record of the judgment, or by the attorney, unless a
revocation of his authority is filed. Whenever a judgment is satisfied in fact,
otherwise than upon an execution, the party or attorney must give such
acknowledgment, or make such endorsement and, upon motion, the court
may compel it, or may order the entry of satisfaction to be made without it.
