Re: Credit Card Judgement

A judgment is at the end of the case, meaning you already lost in Court. You should have asked prior to judgment.

Re: Credit Card Judgement

The best way is usually to make arrangements to pay a valid debt (which usually includes interest). That usually means contacting the creditor (or lawyer handling the case)and settling it with a payment or payment plan, or whatever is agreed upon. If you have a judgment againt you, you may be facing a garnishment of wages and/or bank accounts, so best to do it sooner rather than later.
