No, once a judgment is discharged it goes away and can not be reinstated. Any creditor that goes after a debt that has been discharged can be fined or sanctioned by the court.

It depends on the specific circumstances and laws governing bankruptcy in your jurisdiction. Generally, once a judgment is discharged in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, it cannot be reinstated. However, if there were any exceptions to discharge or if the judgment was based on fraud, it could potentially be reinstated. It is best to consult with a bankruptcy attorney for guidance specific to your situation.

How do you get a judgment to say satisfied on your credit report when it was discharged in your bankruptcy?

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.


How can you get a judgment off your credit report after filing bankruptcy?

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".

Yes, you can have a civil judgment removed from your credit report if it was included and discharged in a bankruptcy, even if the judgment date is later than the bankruptcy discharge date. You may need to dispute the judgment with the credit reporting agencies and provide proof of the bankruptcy discharge to have it removed from your report.

Can a collector who bought your account from the creditor be awarded a lawsuit judgment if the debt was included in your bankruptcy?

There is something amiss here, a debt that is discharged in bankruptcy is no longer collectible. Therefore a lawsuit could not be filed and won nor a judgment awarded to the plaintiff pertaining to such a debt. The involved party should contact the attorney that handled the bankruptcy and have the judgment voided if it is indeed invalid. It would be advisable to acertain if the debt was discharged rather than excluded from the bankruptcy or perhaps sold previous to the filing of the petition.


Can a judgment be made on a person protected under chapter 7 bankruptcy?

That's not blanket protection, you are only protected from the included creditors that are dischargeable and discharged. They must cease all action when you file, but after case is over those not discharged or included can get judgements. If it is for a discharged debt it can be vacated. A lien is coming your way, so get rid of it.
