Mahnbescheid (court payment order)

Court-issued payment order in the automated dunning procedure — with a 14-day objection period.

The court payment order (Mahnbescheid, delivered in a yellow envelope) must not be confused with a private dunning letter. From service you have two weeks to file an objection (§ 692 ZPO). After that, the other side can apply for an enforcement order (Vollstreckungsbescheid) — which can be enforced against you.
