Q: I included 3 judgements in my ch 7 which was discharged 2 years ago yet it still appears in judgment search. Why
I also am paying a separate judgment which doesn’t appear in any judgment search. Where can I find amount paid
A: Bankruptcy removes the financial liability for the Judgment, but not the Judgment in State Court records, which requires a special state court procedure for each Judgment. With modern technology, you can be represented by any high-quality attorney in New Jersey irrespective of geography.
A: The judgments may be showing v but your order of discharge trumps them all. For the judgment you’re still paying, either your payment records or the creditors payment records should show what you’ve paid
