How much does a judgment drop your credit score?

How much does your credit score improve when paying a credit card off?
It will improve dramatically if you just pay it off to under 30% utilization of total credit. However if you have the money to pay it off do not pay it off all at once. Take six month and make equal payment (i.e. you owe 1000, make payments of 200/month) This will do a lot better for your credit score.
What happens after a entry judgment is granted?
That pretty much depends upon how much the judgment is for. usually, if the judgment amount is small, then nothing happens except that you have a really negative mark on your credit report. If you attempt a purchase a home, the mortgage lender will force you to pay off the judgment before they will extend a mortgage loan to you. The judgment will appear on your credit report for a very long time and will negatively impact your credit score. If the judgment is for a relatively large amount of money, the creditor will most likely seek to garnish your earnings or attach monies in your bank accounts.
Credit Score and Credit Go Hand-In-Hand?
Yes, credit and credit score go hand-in-hand. Your credit is your ability to borrow money, like using a credit card or taking a loan. Your credit score is a number that reflects how well you manage that borrowed money. When you use credit responsibly—like paying bills on time and keeping balances low—your credit score improves. But missed payments or too much debt can lower your score. You can check your credit score using tools like PFScores, which helps you understand where you stand and how to improve your score over time.
