The bill amends section 772.13 of the Florida Statutes to establish additional requirements for postjudgment execution proceedings aimed at enforcing judgments against terrorist parties. Key provisions include the clarification that there is no right to a jury trial in these proceedings, and that defendants who evade jurisdiction cannot utilize state court resources to contest collection efforts. The bill also expands the scope of creditor processes, allowing them to be served on any person or entity under the court's jurisdiction, and applies to intangible assets without territorial limitations.

Furthermore, the bill retroactively applies these provisions to any postjudgment execution proceedings, including those initiated before, on, or after July 1, 2025. It also specifies that blocked funds from electronic transfers related to terrorist parties are deemed owned by those parties and subject to execution and garnishment. The effective date of the act is upon becoming law.
