Full Text of § 708.610
Plain-English Summary
Rather than building a separate receivership framework for judgment enforcement, this article borrows the one that already exists. Section 708.610 folds in Title 7's Chapter 5 (commencing with § 564) and Chapter 5a (commencing with § 571), which set the general rules for how receivers are appointed, what qualifies someone to serve, and what powers, rights, and duties a receiver has.
What Article 7 adds is the specific circumstance under which a court may appoint a receiver for judgment enforcement, covered in § 708.620, and a specialized use of that power for alcoholic beverage licenses in § 708.630.
