I was awarded a judgement in Federal Court against a business in California, then found that they had changed their business name - same business entity, just a minor name change - after we had filed for default judgement. My attorney is telling me that the name on the judgement cannot be amended, and that my only recourse is to sue them again under their new name. That seems ridiculous to me...if that were true, then businesses would do a small name change all the time to get out of being sued. Can I not just request the court to amend the judgement to the new name?
