Equifax is a really bad company! They have been repeatedly fined by the Federal Trade

commission for not accepting consumers evidence to remove untrue information.

I too am in the middle of a fight with them over reporting a lien the was released as

a lien filed in error. Make a complaint with the federal Trade commission and get a good lawyer. Equifax has employee's that are not very educated because when you call

they don't understand. Remember this is the same company that in 1996 was fined millions for taking the phone off the hook, for about a week, so they would not be bothered. Jontrx400@gmail.com

Can a civil judgment be removed from credit report?

AnswerIf it was true and accurate, no. maybeThat is often state dependant, but you should be able to have it removed once the debt is paid. If it is not paid yet, it is considered outstanding debt, and will stay on your credit report. No a valid judgment will remain 7 years or indefinitely if the judgment creditor chooses to renew it.If a judgment is paid or settled the entry will reflect such, but the judgment will still remain on the CR for a minimum of 7 years.YesOnly the court or the credit bureaus can remove judgments on your credit report. You can dispute anything on your credit report to the credit bureaus that you believe to be inaccurate or erroneous.
