Claim and Delivery is a provisional California Collection Law remedy that enables the plaintiff in an action for recover of specific, tangible personal proeprty in the defendant's possession to obtain possession of the property prior to judgment.

The Claim and Delivery procedure is most often used when the personal property sought is security for the repayment of a debt now in default.  It is also used by California Collection lawyers to reclaim personal property which has been loaned, leased or bailed to another; or to obtain personal proeprty which is the subject of a dispute over ownership.

Upon the filing of a complaint for Claim and Delivery the plaintiff shall seek a writ of possession as long as the plaintiff can show that it is more probable than not that he or she will ultimately obtain a judgment for the possesion of the personal property.

Once a Writ of Attachment issues, the court may order the defendant to transfer to the levying officer property the officer must take into custody to perfect the lien.  As experienced California Collection Lawyers we are prepared to have the judge sign a turnover order to effectuate the transfer of property to the levying officer.

In addition, the court may order that documents of title be delivered to the levying officer for any attached property; such an order will facilitate any later sale and prevent a transfer where, e.g.., a vehicle is levied upon.

As experienced California Collection Attorneys we always are prepared to personally serve the turnover order on the defendant whether it is in Court or at the defendants place of business.

The failure to comply with the court's turnover order subjects the defendant to arrest and punishment for contempt.
