A judgment can be executed in several ways, the preferred method for a judgment creditor to recover monies is through wage garnisment. Bank account levy, liens against real property owned by the judgment debtor. In some U.S. states the seizure and sale of unexempt personal property held by the debtor (CD's, jewelry, electronics, items of value) is also allowed, but the action is rarely implemented by the judgment holder.
If there was no final judgment there was no divorce.
The Plaintiff's motion for summary judgment is asking the court to rule on all pleadings that have been filed in the case. This happens if one of the defendants has filed an response or answer. The Plaintiff will usually ask for judgment when filing a motion for summary judgment.

In any state, Judgements are usually filed with a court. In order for the Judgement to be released, someone -- preferably the party that filed the Judgement -- must be satisfied before the Judgement is released.

No
If the judgment names only one spouse as the judgment debtor it will not be entered on the non judgment spouse's credit report.
