110 Enforcement as civil judgments
(1) Subject to section 109A, an ancillary money order is enforceable as if it were a judgment for the payment of that amount under the Civil Procedure Act 2005.
(2) The order may be entered in the records of the Local Court as a judgment given in the Local Court for a debt due to the person to whom the payment is required to be made by that order.
(3) The order may be so entered even though the order was made by a court that is not the Local Court or the amount ordered to be paid exceeds the jurisdictional limit of the Local Court.
(4) The method of enforcement provided by this section does not affect any other remedy for enforcement provided by any other Act or law.
