Chapter 548 Judgments
Section 548.23 PLEA OF CONFESSION.

548.23 PLEA OF CONFESSION.
Judgment in the cases mentioned in section 548.22 may also be entered in the district court
in the manner therein provided, and with like effect, upon filing with the court administrator a
plea of confession signed by an attorney of such court, together with an instrument signed by the
debtor authorizing such confession; but such instrument must be distinct from that containing the
bond, contract, or other evidence of the demand for which judgment is confessed. Any person
filing a plea of confession and an instrument under this section shall pay the same fee as provided
for filing a civil action in district court; except that if the amount of the judgment confessed is not
greater than the jurisdictional limit of the conciliation court, the fee shall be in the amount of the
filing fee for an action in conciliation court.
