The total amount for judgment enforcement in the first 11 months of 2020 is more than 262 trillion VND. However, there are up to 97 trillion "unable to execute judgments", 152 trillion "sufficient conditions for judgment execution", but in fact, the judgment enforcement agencies only collect about 38 trillion VND of the " sufficient conditions for judgment execution".
