In order to procure a judgment against someone for debt, due process has to be followed. Filing a lawsuit in the appropriate venue,(usually Small Claims Court). Obtaining a hearing date, going through the hearing/trial process and being awarded a judgment. Then the judgment has to be enforced which also has specific steps to be followed. Consult court procedures governing lasuits and judgments for your state of residency.

Can you attach a lien to a lien?

Laws vary by state and my comments are based on California law. There are many procedures that might apply depending on the type of lien you are referring to. If you have a judgment against someone and you know of a third party who owes money to the judgment debtor, you can obtain a writ of exeuction and have the sheriff levy on that claim or you can file a motion for an assignment order transfer the right of payment to you. If the judgment debtor has a judgment against someone else, you can have that judgment assigned to you can you can then collect that judgment.

If the house you're selling is in escrow and you just found out you have a judgment against you can you have that money held in a SAFE account while you fight it in court?

If you have a recorded judgment against you, that showed up upon the title search, when you opened up a sales escrow, the amount of the judgment times two will be held by the title company. If not using a title company, but someone else, the answer would be the same.
