If the judgment lien was awarded TO you then you can choose to not enforce it. Do not hand it over to the sheriff for recording in the land records. Do not have it served on the debtor. If it has been recorded you can ask the court how you can record a proper release. In Massachusetts the execution can be returned to the court as "Satisfied in Full" and then the "Satisfied" copy certified by the court will act as a release once you record it.
