A judgment the court makes because both sides have agreed to it, often as part of a settlement.
What it means
A consent judgment is a judgment or order made by a court because the parties have agreed to its terms, usually to record a settlement. It turns the agreement into an enforceable court order without a contested hearing. Consent orders are common in civil disputes and in family law, where the Federal Circuit and Family Court can make parenting or property orders by consent if satisfied they are appropriate.
How it's used
After mediation the parties signed consent orders, and the court made a consent judgment for staged repayment.
