Texas post-judgment interest calculator

How much post-judgment interest a Texas judgment has earned from the day it was signed to any date, at the statutory or contract rate, with the interest it earns each day now.

The judgment

Which describes the judgment?

Was post-judgment interest paused for an appeal?

Has the judgment been revived after going dormant?

Date the judgment was signed (rendered)

Amounts awarded

In dollars and cents, as the judgment states them. Leave a line blank if the judgment awards none.

Damages (the main amount awarded)

Prejudgment interest awarded

Attorney's fees awarded

Court costs awarded in the judgment

Interest rate

Which rate does the judgment carry?

Contract rate, percent a year

Only for a fixed contract rate, for example 10 or 9.5.

Payments, credits and costs since the judgment

One line each. Entries on the same date count in the order listed. Amounts in dollars; a release has no amount. For a cost, choose what kind of cost it was. Up to 40 lines; submitting adds more blank lines.

What the interest figure includes

The total counts all interest earned since the judgment: interest already added to the balance, interest that payments and credits have paid off, and interest earned since the last time it was added. Payments reduce the balance that bears interest, so entering them gives a lower and more accurate figure than the awarded amount alone.

Before you rely on a figure

The calculator uses the same engine as JudgmentVault itself, with the Texas rules set out on the methodology page, some of which are still pending legal review. When a judgment falls outside what those rules cover, such as a judgment rendered in a month whose rate is not yet published, it says so and shows no figure rather than guess. Nothing you enter is stored.
