How do I make a motion for judgment to be marked as satisfied in bankruptcy court?
The only way to remove a judgment against you in court records is to either pay off, or satisfy, the judgment, or to have the judgment discharged through bankruptcy proceedings. Even once you have received a bankruptcy discharge with respectto a judgment, the judgment is not likely to automatically disappear from the court records. Rather, you may need to take additional steps in order to have the judgment marked as satisfied. As these procedures may vary according to your state’s laws, you should contact an attorney for assistance in getting a judgment marked as satisfied.
