Plain-English Summary

This short rule routes a mechanics’-lien judgment to its enforcement provision. Once judgment is entered on the lien claim, it is carried out as the execution rule for these judgments provides — reaching the improved property to satisfy the lien.

The Official Note ties the procedure to the Mechanics’ Lien Law. Pointing to the execution rule rather than restating it keeps enforcement of lien judgments consistent with the rest of the execution scheme.
