It's possible that the CA could put a lien on your home, but they can't force a sale unless the amount of the judgment at least equals your equity in the home minus the homestead exemption. The homestead exemption for Illinois is $7500. Unfortunately, you can't take the larger exemptions available in bankruptcy in Federal court. Here is some additional information that may be of help to you: http://www.illinoislawhelp.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=home.dsp_content&contentID=24#JudgmentLiens
