"Status only judgment" is a term used mainly in divorce law. It means that the court has ruled that the parties are now divorced, but that many issues may still need to be resolved, such as the division of property. The court reserves the right to revisit these issues should they arise. Status only judgment is usually given if the parties are in a hurry to be divorced for some reason, or if one of them refuses to participate in the divorce proceedings.

Is judgment proof legal in Kentucky?

"Judgment-proof" means that even if a plaintiff obtains its civil judgment against its defendant, the defendant has no assets from on which the court can levy in proceedings in aid of execution to satisfy the judgment. It also generally implies that as a result the defendant is not worth being sued, because the possibility of ultimately recovering a money judgment is nil.Added: There is no such legal principle as judgment proof. It is not a defense to a lawsuit. One can obtain a judgment against a defendant, regardless of the ability to collect the judgment. Plaintiffs often choose to proceed against defendants who appear to be judgment proof because they believe that the defendant will eventually have assets or income against which to collect.You are correct. The status of being judgment-proof is as a matter of fact and not a matter of law. Which is why I used the word "implied" and not the word "holds". Therefore, it is legal to the extent that as a matter of fact the judgment cannot be satisfied.


Does a judgment still stay on your credit report after 7 years if the status says filed or will it come off the credit report after 7 years regardless?

Some judgments will be removed according to the seven year time limit some will not. Many judgments are renewable, if that is the case the judgment can stay or be reentered on a CR. The "filed" indicates when the judgment became valid, and that is the date from which the seven year time frame usually begins.

What should you do if a judgment is 6 and a half years old and you do not know if it will be renewed?

A judgment creditor seldom lets a judgment lapse. That would mean the entire process of filing a lawsuit and being granted a judgment wasted effort. The only option of the debtor is to pay the judgment amount or reach a settlement agreement of some type with the judgment holder.

Can the status of a still-existing judgment be changed from unknown to something else while it is being paid off?

No, paid off or not. It'll stay for the 7 yrs. What will change is it will say judgement, paid. It will still has a negative effect though. The status of a judgment is not irrelevant. What is important is whether or not the legal disposition is recorded. In the case of a judgment, the disposition is a "satisfaction of judgment". You could have the status changed to not-satisfied, or not-paid (in full). This would be a waste of time and effort. When your judgment is paid in full, be sure to get a satisfaction from a judge, pay to have this legal disposition recorded and send a copy of it to all three credit bureaus.
