When a creditor wins a lawsuit, their win is memorialized in the form of a judgment. If the judgment does not include interest, then the creditor cannot collect interest on their judgment. An attempt to collect interest, without the right to do so, can violate the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and the Missouri Merchandising Practices Act.
