Issuance and collection are separate steps. ## Working notes [[Cal. Code of Civ. Proc. § 699.510]] directs issuance to the levying officer and requires compliance with applicable family-law provisions. Collection may involve a bank levy, earnings, or property, subject to legal protections. A useful family-law example is an unpaid equalization payment in a divorce judgment. The writ enforces the obligation; it does not establish it. > [!tip] Forms project > EJ-130 belongs in the future forms resource, with the levy instructions explained separately.
