Judgement Proof Law & Legal Definition

Judgement proof refers to a debtor who has little or no assets for a creditor to seek payment of a judgement from. In some cases, a person threatened with or subject to potential litigation may make themself judgment proof by diverting his/her assets into holdings that can't be reached by local courts, such as investing their money offshore through offshore trusts and IBC's (International Business Corporations).
