Individuals cannot "put" something on someone else's credit report. Judgments are part of the public record, and as such, are the subject of routine searches by individuals who re-sell this type of information to Credit Reporting Agencies. So, if you were the prevailing party in a judgment, you can be relatively certain the judgment will find it's way onto the defendants credit. In most states, a judgment must be recorded twice to ensure that it attachs to any real property owned by the defendant.

To have a judgment placed on someone's credit report, you need to first obtain a court judgment against them for a debt owed. You can then request that the credit bureaus add the judgment to the individual's credit report. The credit bureaus will typically verify the information with the court before including it on the report.

How do you get an outstanding judgment placed on someone's credit report?

If you have a judgment and after 7 years it's off your credit does that mean that the creditor can't put a lien on any of your property?

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.
