What else can I help you with?

Paying the judgment will help, but you will have to wait 7 years for the judgment to fall off your credit. Once the judgment is paid, it will show other landlords that you will fulfill your obligations, regardless of the stain on your credit.
Does paying a judgment improve credit report?
Yes it does. It shows that eventually you do pay.
Is bankruptcy worse for your credit than having a judgment against you and paying back the debt?

How does a judge find you in contempt for not paying child support?
First, they have the legal authority to enter such judgments. Second, a court can issue a notice of a hearing to compel you to appear in court. If you don't it can issue a warrant for your arrest. Third, a judge can and will enter that judgment against you if you are not paying your child support on time.
Can a collection agency file a judgment against you if you are working with a credit counseling agency paying them monthly?
Yes, a collection agency can still file a judgment against you even if you're working with a credit counseling agency and making monthly payments. While credit counseling can help manage your debts and may negotiate with creditors, it does not prevent legal actions if payments are missed or agreements are not met. It's essential to stay in communication with both the credit counseling agency and the creditors to avoid potential legal consequences.

What happens if a judgment is taken against you?
If a judgment is taken against you, it typically means that a court has ruled in favor of the other party, often resulting in a requirement for you to pay a specified amount of money or comply with certain actions. This judgment may lead to wage garnishment, asset seizure, or liens against your property if you fail to comply. Additionally, it can negatively impact your credit score and financial standing. It's important to address the judgment promptly, either by paying it, negotiating a settlement, or appealing the decision if grounds exist.
Can you go to jail for not paying a bank loan?
Jail is not a penalty for not paying a bank loan. The bank can bring a judgment against the person who does not pay the loan back.
If a person has an IRS lien against them are they considered a convicted felon?
NO. A lien is nothing more than a public record that notifies other creditors that the IRS has a security interest against the Taxpayer's assets. The IRS can file a lien without ANY judicial review. And it's a civil matter, not criminal. It is similar to having your credit card company file a judgment against you for not paying (except they at least have to go to court to get a judgment).
