If the defendant does not reply to your claim, you can ask the court to enter judgment 'by default' (that is, make an order that the defendant pay you the amount you have claimed because no reply has been received). You should do this as soon as possible after the 14 days have passed.
How long does a judgment lien last in Massachusetts? A judgment lien in Massachusetts will remain attached to the debtor's property (even if the property changes hands) for 20 years (for liens on real estate) or 30 days (for liens on personal property).
File a notice of appeal in the Land Court Recorder's Office. For almost all cases, this should be filed within 30 days of entry of the judgment on the docket. For almost all cases, the appeal is to the Massachusetts Appeals Court.
Here's how it might go: Backed by the judgment, the creditor can request an execution from the court. That gives an enforcement officer (like a Sheriff or City Marshal) the green light to go seize and sell your stuff. They could haul your collector car off to an auction, for example. It sounds invasive, but it's legal.
Appeals are decided by panels of three judges working together. The appellant presents legal arguments to the panel, in writing, in a document called a "brief." In the brief, the appellant tries to persuade the judges that the trial court made an error, and that its decision should be reversed.
