Yes, they are renewable.
I recently discussed the SOL on judgments with an attorney. He advised that a judgment loses its priority after the SOL has run out. He advised me that "priority" just indicates which debts should be paid first. He advised me that the judgment will not disappear until it has been paid or settled. The creditor can revive it again and again.
After reading everything I can get my hands on about the matter, I found that information hard to believe. Why have a statute of limitations then? So, even tho the law says a SOL is 4 years, the creditor or landlord can still file a writ of revival and the whole thing starts over and can go on for a very long time. Just before the time is up, the creditor can sell the debt and the purchaser can start the process all over again.

If those are the only debts, the question becomes, what is the statute of limitations on the debt and the judgments. Some states limit judgments to ten years, some twenty, and some of the ten-year states allow extension of collection on the judgment to another ten years. If the debts and judgments are no longer collectible, why file? Nothing prevents you from filing, however.
