If the debt that you were sued over, or the judgment itself was included in your bankruptcy, you only need send a copy of your bankruptcy papers to the credit reporting agencies. The judgment will not "come off", but it should get marked "included in bankruptcy" or "discharged through bankruptcy".
Answer Contact the clerk or administrator of the court where the bankruptcy was discharged or you can visit pacer.gov for your records. Or if your in a hurry you can go to one of the online retrieval services if you live out of the state you filed in. There are several good ones. The cost is minimal and you can usually get them back via email within a couple of hours. The one I have used in the past is www.bankruptcy-records.us they have a phone number to talk with a live person to check the availability of your records before you order them. Super friendly
You have to contact the credit bureaus and "ask" to have it removed, you may even have to provide a copy of the discharge to prove the date.
If a judgment was included in, and discharged by, your bankruptcy; there is no need to obtain a separate disposition. Write the credit bureaus and send a copy of your bankruptcy papers which show this judgment included. That should suffice to have the judgment removed from your report and the original tradeline from the debt marked "included in BK". Talk with an attorney or go to a bank that has a notary service.
It depends on what kind of public record. If it is Civil, you may have to go to the Courthouse, if Federal, like Bankruptcy Records, you can get a free copy of the discharge records if it is discharged in the last 30 days at www.bankruptcy-records.us or www.officialbankruptcycourtrecords.com but if it is over the 30 days, then it cost a little. Not much I dont think. It takes about 30 minutes for it to be emailed back. Our mortgage company uses bothe these sites.
In most cases it will be sent to you by the bankruptcy court. If you need another copy or have not received your discharge papers when you believe you should have then contact the bankruptcy court to obtain them.
Contact the clerk or court administrator where the bankruptcy was discharged. The clerk will inform the involved party of the procedure needed to obtain the necessary documents.

You can request a copy of your discharge papers (DD Form 214) from the National Archives. You can also contact the Department of Defense or your branch's personnel department for assistance in obtaining your discharge status.
If it's a small-claims case, answer that the debt was discharged in bankruptcy and attach a copy of the discharge order. Otherwise, contact an attorney to either provide a similar answer *or* take the creditor to Federal court for violating the discharge.
I think of two ways. Call the DMV and have them do a search using the VIN number or call the court for a copy of the papers filed for bankruptcy. There should be a copy of the title of the car in the paperwork.
You need to contact the National Personnel Records Centre. See related link.

You could try two ways. One is to have the executor/administrator contact the army to request a copy of the discharge papers. The army will have certain procedures and paperwork, with which you will have to comply. The second is to see if your particular state records them. In New Jersey, veterans' discharge papers are recorded just the way deeds are recorded in order to ensure that they could be retrieved in the event the veteran lost the originals. Contact the state or county recording office to inquire about that.
