Why is it so hard to go after the person's assets? In a just world, everything she owns should be sold and the proceeds handed over to her victim.

- bombcar 3y agoThese people usually have no assets. They own nothing and are happy. Or in jail. It’s called being judgement proof and basically lets you ignore civil penalties.
- selimthegrim 3y agoOh my God is this why the city of New Orleans doesn’t pay squat on judgments?
- ProllyInfamous 3y agoA decade ago, I was "judgment proof" after a decade of drug dealing and general degeneracy... the person I was then allowed me to be the phenomenal asshole we are all capable of channeling: fuck you, I got nothing! "Blood from a stone." Life is so much simpler, yet more satisfying, now that I've lived long enough to secure away a few assets. God willing, we'll all live long enough to not be the pieces of shit our youth/ignorance once allowed. ---- I read the other day that 20% of male Millenials are currently uninsured.
- sokoloff 3y agoI’d expect around that percentage to not even have a driver’s license.
- yuliyp 3y agoMost people have negligible assets beyond where they live and stuff like clothes. Legal settlements can't generally force people out of their homes.
- SoftTalker 3y agoIf they are that poor they probably are renting anyway, so there is no house or property that can be claimed.

- undersuit 3y agoAhh yes, California needs more homeless.
