How do you remove a judgment from a home that was awarded in a divorce if the deed to the property was never transferred to the non debtor ex-spouse?
If the judgment lien was placed before the divorce and not paid or settled the property could not have been conveyed to another party regardless of the terms divorce decree. If the couple lived in a community property state the property lien is against both of them even though only one spouse incurred the debt and the awarding of the home in the divorce decree is irrelevant as to the validity of the judgment. Before the deed can be conveyed to the spouse who was awarded the property the judgment will have to be paid or settled according to the terms of the lien holder.
Can both a judgment lien be placed on home and wages garnished at the same time in Colorado?
As always I would suggest you do some of the footwork yourself insofar as research. In New Jersey, once they obtain the judgment against an individual they then go after the debtors wages. Once the judgment is paid in full, it can be marked satisfied and filed with the courts. The judgment (here in jersey) is entered, which starts the ball rolling towards garnishing an individuals wages. Once it's paid off, the attorney can file a Warrant to Satisfy Judgment, and they should remove the lien. At least this is my understanding of it. Once it's paid, make sure to get a copy of the filed documents stating that the judgment was paid and that it's free and clear. If you were to buy a house later they do a judgment search and you'll have to prove that it was paid before closing.
What if the judgment was paid except the court costs?
If the amount of the court costs was added into the total amount of the judgment, then you have not paid off the judgment. You have only paid off the debt that was the basis for the lawsuit. Until the entire amount is paid, the judgment creditor will not give you the necessary release or warrant of satisfaction you need to eliminate the judgment lien.

Why should a judgment be paid if it cannot be removed from a credit report before seven years have expired?
Short answer, a valid judgment can be executed against the debtor's non exempt property at any time. A judgment that has been perfected as a lien against real property is more likely to be implemented as a forced sale of the property in question. And a judgment accrues interest until it is paid or satisfied with the judgment creditor.
