Trying to do something without a lawyer, eh? You have to file an affidavit or other document with the court that issued the judgment saying the judgment has not been satisfied, probably also an affidavit that the judgment debtor is not on active duty in the armed forces, and ask for an execution or similarly-named document. The execution is then given to (depending on your state law) to a sheriff, deputy sheriff, constable or person designated by the court on your motion, who records it in the registry of deeds (or whatever it is called in your state). You have to research the book and page number of the deed so it can be referenced on the deed record.
