Understanding Your Sweep Results

Where to Find Your Results

Sweep results live on each debtor's individual report page. To get there: from your dashboard, click the debtor's name or "View Report." The report is divided into sections — one per alert category — each showing alert cards for that source type. An alert count badge on each section header shows how many results that category has returned across all sweeps for this debtor.

New, unread alerts are highlighted at the top of their section. Previously viewed alerts appear below, dimmed slightly to indicate they're not new.

Alert Types and What They Mean

• 🏠 Property Alert High value
  The sweep found a real property record — a deed, conveyance, or title transfer — with the debtor's name as grantor, grantee, or trustee. This is typically the most directly actionable alert type. A property alert means the debtor has or recently acquired real estate that may be subject to a judgment lien or execution depending on your state's laws and the property's exempt status.
  Next step: Review the property address, parcel number, and any ownership structure details. Share with your attorney to evaluate lien attachment and execution options.
• ⚖️ Court Record Alert Context-dependent
  A court filing was found matching the debtor's name. Pay close attention to whether the debtor appears as a plaintiff (they're suing someone — potentially receiving a settlement you can intercept) or a defendant (they're being sued — useful intelligence but not directly seizable). Plaintiff cases are often the higher-value finding. Court alerts include case number, court jurisdiction, filing date, and co-parties when available.
  Next step: Look up the case number in the relevant court's public access system to read filings and track case progress.
• 🏢 Business Entity Alert Context-dependent
  A new business entity was found where the debtor is listed as an agent, organizer, or officer (for Individual debtors), or where the monitored business entity has new filing activity (for Business debtors). Business alerts include company name, state of formation, registered agent, address, and recent filing history. A newly formed LLC may indicate a fresh income stream worth pursuing — or an attempt to shelter assets.
  Next step: Review the business details. If the entity appears worth tracking separately, use the "Track This Business" button to add it as its own debtor entry.
• ✈️ FAA / USCG Alert High value
  The debtor's name was found in FAA Aircraft Registry or USCG Vessel Documentation records. Aircraft and documented vessels are titled personal property and can be subject to judgment liens and execution in most states. Alert cards show the registration details, aircraft make/model or vessel name, N-number or documentation number, and the registration address.
  Next step: Verify registration details directly in the FAA or USCG public databases. Discuss aircraft/vessel lien and levy options with your attorney — federal law governs these assets.
• 📋 Bankruptcy Alert Time-sensitive
  The debtor filed for bankruptcy protection. This is the most time-sensitive alert type. The automatic stay under 11 U.S.C. § 362 immediately halts most collection actions — including enforcement of your judgment — from the moment of filing. The alert includes chapter type (7, 11, or 13), case number, filing date, district court, and case status. Act on this information immediately.
  Next step: Notify your attorney immediately. Do not take any collection action (enforcement, garnishment, levy) that could violate the automatic stay. Consider filing a Proof of Claim in the bankruptcy proceeding.

Alert Status — New, Read, and Actioned

Each alert card has a status indicator. New alerts are shown prominently; once you open or view an alert, it transitions to Read. When you've taken action on a finding — reviewed it with your attorney, filed a motion, or determined it's not relevant — you can mark it Actioned. This keeps your report organized and lets you distinguish items still requiring attention from those you've resolved.

Taking Action on Results

Sweep results are information — what you do with them is determined by your legal situation, your state's execution rules, and your attorney's guidance. In general:

• Property alerts → verify ownership via county recorder, then pursue judgment lien attachment or writ of execution
• Court plaintiff alerts → track the case and explore assignment of judgment proceeds or writ of garnishment against any settlement
• Business entity alerts → evaluate whether to add the entity as a separate business debtor; explore charging order options against LLC membership interests
• FAA/USCG alerts → consult your attorney on federal lien filing or execution against the registered asset
• Bankruptcy alerts → contact your attorney immediately; suspend all collection activity pending stay relief
