I have a civil judgment against me and the mobile home wasn't in my name. It is showing up on my credit report. How do I dispute it?
That pretty much depends upon how much the judgment is for. usually, if the judgment amount is small, then nothing happens except that you have a really negative mark on your credit report. If you attempt a purchase a home, the mortgage lender will force you to pay off the judgment before they will extend a mortgage loan to you. The judgment will appear on your credit report for a very long time and will negatively impact your credit score. If the judgment is for a relatively large amount of money, the creditor will most likely seek to garnish your earnings or attach monies in your bank accounts.
