WA: Claimant Enforces the Determination
This section describes the process of converting an adjudication determination to a monetary judgement of the Court and having it enforced.
- Take the certified determination to the appropriate Court and complete an affidavit form which is available at the Court. In the affidavit you need to swear whether any money has been paid to you by the respondent which would reduce the amount owed by virtue of the adjudication determination.
- With assistance of Court Registry staff, have the certified determination registered as a judgement of the Court. This judgement will result in obtaining a money order.
- Select an option for enforcement of the money order. Legal advice or other assistance may be sought. Court Registry staff cannot assist in this decision.
- Commence your chosen enforcement option at the appropriate Court with the assistance of Court Registry staff
Adjudicate Today staff are not trained to provide information on enforcement options and can't assist in this regard.
Process Complete
Once the respondent makes full payment to the claimant, including adjudicator fees and any interest, the payment process under the Act is complete.
At conclusion of the process, both the respondent and claimant retain their legal rights to pursue any remaining grievances whether it be by litigation or exercising any other dispute resolution rights as described in the contract.
The payment process under the Act is complete.
