How can you get a civil judgment from creditor either off your credit report or show it was included in chapter 7 bankruptcy filing?
You cannot get it off of your credit report. You can get the accurate information that the account has been handled in Bankruptcy court on __ date. You need a copy of your bankruptcy judgement. This shows how many and what accounts were written off or still need payment. You can send copies of this to the 3 credit bureaus. USUALLY, this will help you get the problem mitigated. Not always though as the credit companies only need to respond to material sent in by their contracting clients. If this is the case, when you get a copy of your credit report, sent in a 100 word or less letter to all 3 credit bureaus telling them what the situation is and they must print that out in all your credit records. This may or may not help, but it is better than nothing by far.
