## The Basis of Domestic Judgment Enforcement

A court decision fulfils its purpose only when it is executed. The Georgian Law on Enforcement Proceedings regulates which acts are subject to compulsory execution, on what conditions enforcement proceedings are opened, and who carries out the enforcement measures. The execution of acts issued by domestic bodies — Georgian courts and administrative organs — is the backbone of this system, and for a creditor, using it correctly often decides whether a real result against the debtor is obtained.
