How do you repair landlord tenant judgment from your credit?
Paying the judgment will help, but you will have to wait 7 years for the judgment to fall off your credit. Once the judgment is paid, it will show other landlords that you will fulfill your obligations, regardless of the stain on your credit.
Does paying a judgment improve credit report?
Yes it does. It shows that eventually you do pay.

How does a judge find you in contempt for not paying child support?
First, they have the legal authority to enter such judgments. Second, a court can issue a notice of a hearing to compel you to appear in court. If you don't it can issue a warrant for your arrest. Third, a judge can and will enter that judgment against you if you are not paying your child support on time.

Jail is not a penalty for not paying a bank loan. The bank can bring a judgment against the person who does not pay the loan back.
If a person has an IRS lien against them are they considered a convicted felon?
NO. A lien is nothing more than a public record that notifies other creditors that the IRS has a security interest against the Taxpayer's assets. The IRS can file a lien without ANY judicial review. And it's a civil matter, not criminal. It is similar to having your credit card company file a judgment against you for not paying (except they at least have to go to court to get a judgment).
What happens if you stop paying your credit cards off?
The end result after a lot of aggravation via phone calls and mail from collection agencies could be a lawsuit. Which in 99.9% of the time the creditor/collector wins, receives a judgment and executes that judgment against any nonexempt property belonging to the defendant/debtor. Of course not all defaulted debts result in a lawsuit and judgment, but a person's credit history will always be negatively impacted for a very long time.
Can you write off a judgment on your taxes?
I assume the judgment is against you. If you held the judgment, you will have received money and that may or may not be income. If you pay a judgment against you, whether or not you can "write it off" will depend entirely on what kind of judgment it is. Also, you may be able to write it off for state tax purposes but not federal and vice versa. Usually, paying most judgments does not affect taxes.
