AI Summary
This bill requires that parties who obtain a judgment for money damages must file a notice of satisfaction of judgment with the court within 60 days after the judgment is fully satisfied. If a party fails to do so, they can be liable to the judgment debtor for any costs and attorneys' fees incurred in proving the judgment was satisfied. This requirement applies to judgments obtained under the procedures in Chapters 218, 235, and 239 of the General Laws, but does not apply to judgments that have been satisfied by a levy of execution.
