What this form asks for

The AI fills all of it, from your answers or your documents.

The Request and Order to Seize Property, Form MC 19, is a legal document filed in the state of Michigan by a creditor (plaintiff) who has won a judgment against a debtor (defendant). It formally asks the court to issue an order, often called a writ of execution, authorizing a sheriff or court officer to seize and sell the defendant's property to pay off the outstanding debt. Today, this form can be filled out quickly and accurately using AI-powered services like Instafill.ai, which can also convert non-fillable PDF versions into interactive fillable forms.

The AI checks your answers before you download

12 checks built for this form, so a wrong date or a missing answer is caught before anyone else sees it.

Unsatisfied Judgment Calculation Accuracy

This check verifies that the 'unsatisfied judgment now due' amount is the correct result of the formula: (judgment amount + judgment interest + postjudgment costs) - postjudgment payments. It is critical for ensuring the financial accuracy of the legal order, as an incorrect total could lead to seizing the wrong value of property. If the calculation is incorrect, the form submission should be rejected and flagged for manual review to prevent legal and financial errors.

Case Number Format and Consistency

This validation ensures the 'CASE NO.' is present and matches the required format for the specified judicial circuit/district. It also cross-references that the 'Case No.' on page 2 is identical to the one on page 1. This is crucial for linking the order to the correct legal case file; a mismatch could result in the order being void or applied to the wrong case.

Logical Date Sequence

This check validates that the 'judgment date' is in the past and occurs before the 'request and verification date'. Furthermore, it ensures the 'Judge signature and date' on the order is on or after the 'request and verification date'. This chronological validation is essential to confirm the legal process is followed correctly, as a request cannot precede a judgment, nor can an order be signed before it is requested.

Attorney Bar Number Validation

This check ensures that if a plaintiff's or defendant's attorney is listed, the corresponding 'bar no.' field is not empty and conforms to the State of Michigan's official format (e.g., a 'P' followed by a series of numbers). This is important for verifying the attorney's credentials and their authority to act in the case. An invalid or missing bar number would prevent verification and could invalidate the request.

Defendant Name Consistency Check

This validation confirms that the defendant name(s) listed in the request section (item 3) exactly match the defendant name(s) provided in the case caption at the top of the form. This is a critical consistency check to prevent any ambiguity regarding which party is subject to the seizure order. A mismatch would make the order unenforceable and require correction.

Required Party Information Completeness

This check ensures that the name and address fields for both the plaintiff and the defendant are fully completed. This information is fundamental to the legal process, identifying the parties involved and where legal notices should be sent. An incomplete submission would render the order invalid as it would not clearly define the creditor and debtor.

Common Mistakes in Completing MC 19

The ones the AI is built to catch.

Miscalculating the Unsatisfied Judgment Amount
This is one of the most critical errors, often stemming from incorrect interest calculations or failure to properly credit payments made by the defendant. An inaccurate total can lead to legal challenges, sanctions, and the need to refile the entire request, causing significant delays. To avoid this, meticulously verify all figures against financial records and use the correct statutory interest rate. AI-powered tools like Instafill.ai can help by integrating calculation features to ensure accuracy.
Using an Outdated or Incorrect Defendant Address
The success of a seizure order hinges on the court officer's ability to locate the defendant and their property. Filers often use the address from the original lawsuit, which may be months or years old. An incorrect address will result in a failed service attempt, wasting time and money, and requiring the plaintiff to perform due diligence like a skip trace to find a current address.
Inconsistent Judgment Details
The original judgment amount and date entered on this form must perfectly match the official court judgment. People often make typos or recall the details from memory, leading to discrepancies. Any mismatch, no matter how small, can render the request invalid and cause the court clerk to reject the filing, forcing the plaintiff to correct the error and resubmit.
Forgetting to Sign and Date the Request
The signature on the 'Request and Verification' section is a sworn statement affirming the accuracy of the provided information. An unsigned or undated form is legally incomplete and will be immediately rejected by the court. This simple oversight is a common reason for filing delays, requiring the document to be returned, signed, and resubmitted.
Entering Incorrect Court or Case Information
Filers frequently mistype the case number or confuse the Judicial District with the Judicial Circuit, especially when dealing with multiple cases. This can lead to the form being filed in the wrong court or docket, causing an immediate rejection and delaying the enforcement of the judgment. Always double-check this information against the original judgment order to ensure it is precise.
Incorrectly Identifying the Defendant
The defendant's name must be written exactly as it appears on the original judgment, including any middle initials or suffixes (e.g., Jr., Sr.). A misspelling or variation gives the defendant a legal basis to challenge the seizure, arguing the order does not apply to them. This can halt the collection process and lead to further court proceedings to amend the order.
Omitting the Attorney Bar Number
If an attorney is filing the form, their state bar number is a mandatory piece of information used for verification by the court clerk. Forgetting to include the bar number or entering it incorrectly is a frequent data entry error. This will cause the filing to be flagged as incomplete and returned for correction, pausing the progress of the request.
Submitting a Form with Illegible Handwriting
When a form is not fillable and must be completed by hand, poor handwriting can make critical information like names, addresses, and dollar amounts unreadable. This can lead to data entry errors by court staff, potentially causing notices to be sent to the wrong address or incorrect amounts to be levied. To prevent this, it is best to type the information. Tools like Instafill.ai can convert non-fillable PDFs into fillable versions, ensuring all entries are clear and legible.
Failing to Check the Correct Box for Proceeds
On page 2, item 4 requires the filer to specify whether the proceeds of the sale should be deposited with the 'court' or the 'plaintiff'. Overlooking this choice can create ambiguity for the court officer after a sale is completed. This can delay the plaintiff's receipt of funds as the officer may need to seek clarification from the court, slowing down the final step of the collection process.

Who is responsible for filling out this form?
The plaintiff (the person who won the judgment) or their attorney must complete the 'Request and Verification' section. A judge will then review it and, if approved, complete and sign the 'Order' section.
What information do I need to have ready to complete the 'Request' section?
You will need the court and case information, the original judgment amount and date, and a calculation of the current amount owed after adding interest and costs and subtracting any payments made.
How do I calculate the 'amount of the unsatisfied judgment now due'?
Start with the original judgment amount, add any accrued post-judgment interest and costs, and then subtract the total of any payments or credits the defendant has made to date.
What happens after I fill out the form and file it with the court?
A judge will review your request. If approved, the judge signs the order, which is then given to a sheriff or court officer to carry out the seizure of the defendant's property.
What kind of property can be seized?
The order allows an officer to seize non-exempt personal property, such as vehicles or money, and in some cases, real property. Certain types of property are protected from seizure by law.
