What should I do if I owe money for staying in a hotel? 1, the exercise of lien, seizure of property, emergency can limit their freedom, but not personal injury, this is called private relief, only applicable in an emergency. Call the police immediately after the event and ask for public relief. You can call 11 or report to the police station.

If the court has ruled that the other party has paid back the money, and the other party has the ability to pay back the money, but still does not pay back the money, it is suspected of refusing to execute the judgment or ruling, and may go to jail.
