The Role of the Writ of Execution Issued by a Notary in Preventive Justice and Effective Enforcement
Law and World · Vol. 12, No. 38, pp. 99-127 · 2026
Abstract
The present article examines the legal nature of the writ of execution issued by a notary, its functional purpose, and its relation to preventive justice. The study aims to evaluate the extent to which this mechanism ensures the effective enforcement of due claims while maintaining procedural balance between the interests of creditors and debtors.
The article analyses the Georgian legislation and the practice of the judiciary in comparison with the judicial experience of France and Spain. The research is based on doctrinal, normative, and comparative-legal methods. It also examines the institutional role of a notary, the principle of impartiality, and the significance of enforceable legal instruments, with a particular focus on legal consequences of the writ of execution issued by a notary, simplified enforcement mechanisms, and procedural safeguards.
The study finds that a notarized agreement and the writ of execution issued on its basis contributed to reducing the workload of courts, ensuring the prompt satisfaction of the creditor’s claim and stability of legal relations. At the same time, further improvement of legal and procedural standards is necessary for ensuring the successful exercise of this mechanism.
