CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE
SECTION 709.010-709.030



709.010.  (a) As used in this section, "trust" has the meaning
provided in Section 82 of the Probate Code.
   (b) The judgment debtor's interest as a beneficiary of a trust is
subject to enforcement of a money judgment only upon petition under
this section by a judgment creditor to a court having jurisdiction
over administration of the trust as prescribed in Part 5 (commencing
with Section 17000) of Division 9 of the Probate Code. The judgment
debtor's interest in the trust may be applied to the satisfaction of
the money judgment by such means as the court, in its discretion,
determines are proper, including but not limited to imposition of a
lien on or sale of the judgment debtor's interest, collection of
trust income, and liquidation and transfer of trust property by the
trustee.
   (c) Nothing in this section affects the limitations on the
enforcement of a money judgment against the judgment debtor's
interest in a trust under Chapter 2 (commencing with Section 15300)
of Part 2 of Division 9 of the Probate Code, and the provisions of
this section are subject to the limitations of that chapter.



709.020.  The judgment creditor may apply to the court on noticed
motion for an order applying to the satisfaction of a money judgment
a contingent remainder, executory interest, or other interest of the
judgment debtor in property that is not vested in the judgment
debtor. The interest of the judgment debtor may be applied to the
satisfaction of the money judgment by such means as the court, in its
discretion, determines are proper to protect the interests of both
the judgment debtor and judgment creditor, including but not limited
to the imposition of a lien on or the sale of the judgment debtor's
interest.


709.030.  Property in a guardianship or conservatorship estate is
not subject to enforcement of a money judgment by a procedure
provided in this division, but the judgment creditor may apply to the
court in which the guardianship or conservatorship proceeding is
pending under Division 4 (commencing with Section 1400) of the
Probate Code for an order requiring payment of the judgment.
