You can pay the judgement, which will pay the creditor. Or, you can request to pay the creditor directly and negotiate for the judgement to be vacated (removed).

Do you have to send past tax refunds to settle with debt collector?

Debt collectors just want your money, they have no interest in your past tax returns. The question has been amended as it is believed what the questioner meant was tax refunds not returns. In answer to such, no regardless of what some debt collector/creditor might have inferred the receipient of a refund does not have to use it to pay creditor debt unless they so choose. However, once the funds have been deposited in an account a judgment creditor can execute a valid judgment as a bank levy against those funds.

Only if interest is provided for in the instrument creating the debt. If the creditor tries to charge interest to which a debtor did not agree, then that constitutes usury and can, in some instances, wipe out the debt altogether. In some states, the creditor may be entitled to collection costs. ==Additional Information== If the debt collector is collecting on a money judgment rendered by a court post judgment interest accrues and can considerably increase the amount of the debt.
