After the hearing, the court will issue a judgment, which may include:

✔️ A payment order – The losing party must pay the amount owed.

✔️ A dismissal – The claim is rejected.

✔️ A conditional order – Payment may be in instalments.

Failure to follow a judgment could lead to enforcement action, such as bailiffs or deductions from wages.
