What happens if one company has a judgment an sells that part of the comany to another?

That's pretty simple to answer: Judgments don't go away because a company is sold or even goes out of business. The successor to the company or its assets has the right to pursue collection of the judgment. Occassionally you can get rid of the collection efforts and the judgment if you protest it on the basis that you were not given advance warning that the company was seeking the judgment. This is a legal matter that should be discussed with an attorney. Your rights may vary from place to place. However, if the judgment is discharged because you were not so warned, the new company may decide that it is not worth the time, cost and effort to obtain a new judgment.
