Can someone file judgment on someone who filed bankruptcy and had it discharged 1 year ago?

It depends on whether that creditor was listed on Schedule F at the time of the filing. The filing of Bankruptcy (BK) doesn't in itself wipe out the debt: that debt must be listed on the list of creditors. If a debt was discharged under BK then the creditor(s) on the list of discharged debts cannot take any action against the Debtor: IT'S GONE FOR GOOD! That's what BK is for-- to give a fresh start. If the creditor was such at the time of filing and the debtor forgot to include that creditor on the list, he may be able to later add it on and have that debt also discharged. Now, if the debtor has since incurred a debt after the BK was discharged then that creditor can take action against the debtor.

Yes, you can have a civil judgment removed from your credit report if it was included and discharged in a bankruptcy, even if the judgment date is later than the bankruptcy discharge date. You may need to dispute the judgment with the credit reporting agencies and provide proof of the bankruptcy discharge to have it removed from your report.
How do i protect my judgment against someone in bankruptcy?
If the judgment debtor is already in bankruptcy, there is nothing you can do. If the judgment is for a debt for which discharge is not allowed, it survives the bankruptcy. If no bankruptcy has been filed, you can try to attach or levy on some property of the debtor that has some value, or equity.

Can a collector who bought your account from the creditor be awarded a lawsuit judgment if the debt was included in your bankruptcy?
There is something amiss here, a debt that is discharged in bankruptcy is no longer collectible. Therefore a lawsuit could not be filed and won nor a judgment awarded to the plaintiff pertaining to such a debt. The involved party should contact the attorney that handled the bankruptcy and have the judgment voided if it is indeed invalid. It would be advisable to acertain if the debt was discharged rather than excluded from the bankruptcy or perhaps sold previous to the filing of the petition.

When does a bankruptcy appear on one's credit report i.e. when the bankruptcy petition is filed or when the debt is officially discharged?
When it is filed. A discharge may be opposed by a creditor and there may be listed debts that cannot be discharged, or unlisted debts that may be discharged, so the "discharge" date is irrelevant.
If a creditor obtains a judgment can bankruptcy still be filed?
Yes
