A stipulation is simply a condition that must be met as a result of the entry of a judgment. Sometimes, a stipulation may provide for the judgment to be dismissed upon satisfaction. In all cases, once a filing for a judgment is made (i.e the creditor files the lawsuit in court) there is now a public record of the judgment and that event is what shows up on a credit report. Most of the time, the result of the judgment is not going to show up in the credit report. So, if someone were to frivolously file 10 lawsuits against you, all ten will show up on your credit report, even tho they may all be dismissed by the judge. So, if you have a stipulated judgment that can be dismissed once it is paid, only the public records in your county will be updated to reflect the satisfaction of the judgment and subsequent dismissal... the credit report will only show the initial filing and amount. It is up to you to contact the credit bureaus and dipute a dismissed judgment and provide them with proof of the dismissal to have it complete removed from your credit report. Always get a Satisfaction of Judgment or an abstract from the court showing the disposition of the case if it is dismissed. These documents are sometimes required to be signed by the original creditor as well as proof the debt is satisfied. If a creditor doesn't sign it, it may not be considered legally paid. So, be thorough and follow through in order to make sure your credit report shows exactly what it should be showing.

Will satisfying a judgment also satisfy the corresponding open debt reported in the accounts portion of the credit report?
Your question concerns two separate issues. A judgment is a legal action that is shown in the "public records" portion of your credit. Any legal item needs its' proper disposition. In the case of a judgment, the disposition is a "satisfaction of judgment". To obtain a satisfaction, the consumer would need to contact the courthouse (same jurisdiction) where the judgment was filed, show proof of payment and follow whatever legal procedure needed. The consumer would then need to have this satisfaction recorded. It is also a good idea to forward a recorded copy to the credit bureaus. An open debt in the tradelines, need to be updated to its' paid status, separate from the judgment.
You had a judgment deleted from your credit report due to a misunderstanding with the credit bureau how many points will your credit score increase?
It depends on other factors of your credit report--but I have seen personally a FICO score increase 140 points once a judgment has been removed. Here are the scoring factors and their weights on a FICO scores: Payment History 35%, Amount of Credit Owing 30%, Length of Credit History 15%, New Credit 10%, and Type of credit in use 10%. Because these factors are considered, it depends. I would say from 50-150.

If you pay off a judgment against you within 10 days does it still show on your credit report?
Yes, the judgment will show on your credit report. Any legal action normally reflected on a credit report (judgments, tax liens, foreclosures and bankruptcies) is granted by a judge. Being a legal action, it must have a disposition. In the case of a judgment, the disposition is called a "satisfaction of judgment". Take proof of your payment to the courthouse and inquire what procedures are needed to obtain a satisfaction. Be sure that you have the disposition recorded. This is usually a small fee and is well worth the money. I also suggest you follow up with all three credit bureaus. Get a copy of your raw credit data from all bureaus. If they list your judgment, send a copy of the satisfaction.
How can you remove a judgment from a credit report if you have letters stating it was a billing error?
Demand that the company that made the error correct the problem. They should be able to contact the credit bureaus and take care of the appropriate paperwork. Mail the letters to the three credit agencies along with an explanation of what you want done and why. * The credit bureau(s) will not take any action until the judgment has been removed from the official court records. The debtor will need to contact the clerk or court administrator of the court where the judgment was recorded to obtain the proper procedures necessary for having the judgment lifted. Legal counsel may be needed, depending on the circumstances of the entering and/or execution of the judgment writ in question.

Can a Credit Card Collection Agency put a lien or judgment on your credit and if so what does that mean?
If the collection agency works in tandem with a law firm (which is the case most of the time) then the answer is yes. What does this mean? If a judgment is granted by a judge, then it is the age old saying, pay me now or pay me later. Anytime your credit is ran (over the next 20 years) then it will show and credit will not be granted until the judgment is satisfied. Keep in mind if a judgment is granted interest probably continues to accrue until satisfied. If at all possible, it is best to inter into a stipulation agreement with the firm and work it out.
Should you sign a Stipulation for Judgment agreement?
That really depends on the terms of the proposed stipulation. Without adequate protection such as a court-ordered repayment plan, having a judgment against you can negatively impact your credit and give the creditor the ability to garnish your wages and take your property. On other other hand, you need to consider what would happen if you didn't sign it and compare the consequences of both actions to see what is best for your situation.

How do you get a judgment put on someone's credit report?
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.
