The usual time limit is ten years at a maximum of 8% interest. N.Y. does not allow most judgments to be renewed.

A judgment in New York is valid for twenty years. During that time it can enforced against a judgment debtor's income and assets.

A lien of a judgment resulting from the docketing of a judgment with the County Clerk is good for ten years, and can be renewed for another ten years.

Six years is that Statue of limitations for any debt.

But when it is placed in judgement form, it is different. This becomes part of the public records. I am under the impression that a judgement does not have an "expiration date"--it has to be settled and paid to the attorney or person that placed it.

A Satisfaction of Lien will have to be filed with the county to show that it is paid.

The only way to remove a judgement is to have a Judge give a court order stating that this can be removed or "erased" sorta speak. Since this is now a public record..it will always show up when a search is done.
