Best Answer

Go to the court that issued the judgement. If it is in error, or has been paid, they can give you a letter that states that information. Then, send a copy of the letter to the three credit bureaus. If the judgement has been paid, then the notation on your credit report will eventually be changed. If there was an agreement between you and an ex-spouse in your divorce agreement that said the other party was responsible, they may consider removing the judgement from your credit report. Be sure to keep a copy in your records, because it could come up again, especially if it is on property you own.
