Re: lawsuit help please

Unless the credit had been extended because of your fraud, the debt should be dischargeable in bankruptcy. The fact that it has turned into a judgment should be of no significance, unless it also has become a lien against real property (real estate) that you own. Feel free to get in touch with me directly if you need bankruptcy assistance.
