Family Code Section 291(b) So Specifies.
In Marriage of Shayan, Case No. B323455 (2d Dist., Div. 8 Oct. 25, 2024) (published), the appellate court affirmed a lower court’s conclusion that an attorney’s fees judgment under Family Code section 2030 was not governed by the normal 10-year enforcement period for most monetary judgments. This was based on Family Code section 291(b), the section’s legislative history, and common sense. The upshot was that a 12-year family law fee judgment could still be enforced.
