Check your local clerk of county website. Judgements are public information. Judgements can been seen for 20+years.
Depending on the state you live in, judgments can be renewed. If the person entitled to the judgment doesn't try to collect or renew, when the judgment expires, you should probably contact your court clerk to find out how to get it removed from all records.
No, not directly. Indirectly the non debtor spouse may find that he or she has a shared joint account levied or joint property encumbered by a judgment against the debtor spouse.
Most states allow a judgment creditor to conduct a bank account levy to help collect a judgment. The exact procedures vary by state and they have to be able to find your account somehow.
In most states a creditor can pursue a lawsuit against a person who cannot be located. The laws in the majority of states simply require that a "reasonable attempt" be made to find and serve the defendant. If the debtor/defendant is not found and/or does not appear on the scheduled hearing date, he or she will lose by default and a judgment for the creditor will be entered. The creditor may then execute the judgment against the debtor's property or assets in accordance with the state laws. In above comment, one form of "reasonable attempt"to reach you may include a simple ad in the newspaper local to your last known address.

Answer: If your credit card company obtains a judgment against you they may take any property of value that they can find.
Go to the clerk of the courts and pay for a record search.

The expiration of the judgment on your credit report does not necessarily prevent the creditor from enforcing the judgment by placing a lien on your property. You may need to check the laws in your state regarding the statute of limitations for enforcement of judgments. Additionally, the creditor may still pursue other legal avenues to collect the debt even if the judgment is no longer on your credit report.
That is difficult to determine as it depends on the judgment holder and the laws of the state in which the judgment was awarded. Before the judgment can be executed it must be filed with the clerk of the court and signed by the judge. How the judgment holder chooses to collect the debt (wage garnishment, bank account levy, lien, etc.) would also have a bearing on when the judgment is enforced. Of course the judgment debtor also has the option of trying to negotiate with the judgment holder to pay the debt owed.
