If the Chapter 7 is a no asset case, then judgments are discharged if they have not placed judgment liens. If they're liens then you would have to file a motion to avoid liens if they're attached to and impair your exempt properties. As far as the judgment for back wages, the labor department can file a claim and the court might allow it, that is, except it from discharge even if it's a no asset case.
