Generally, a judgment against one of nine siblings who have inherited property will affect only that person's 1/9 interest. It will not prevent the sale of the property. However, the debtor sibling's 1/9 share of the proceeds will be held back at the closing and used to pay off the lein.

Maybe. It depends upon how the property is titled and to whom the judgment is against in relation to how the property is titled, (TBE, JTC, JT, etc.). However, the usual judgment execution would be as a lien against the property not a forced sale. Forced sales of primary residence is possible but is costly and time consuming for the judgment creditor and therefore is rarely used as an option to recover a judgment award.
