This requires sending the letter of dispute to the 3 credit bureaus (Equifax, TransUnion, and Experian) disputing the judgement. It is the bureaus that will contact the courthouse and request proof. If it is not provided within 30 days it must be removed. However, this does not relieve you of the judgement. If the judgement grantor chooses to they can still garnish wages etc.
Here is some additional info. Hope this helps.

If the judgment was given over 7 years ago and you satisfied it, go to the courthouse and request a "Release of Judgment" which should be located in your file. I think it varies per state, but releases on satisfied judgements are usually required to be filed by the plaintiff. If they never filed the release, call the creditor and ask them to please file one ASAP. I believe that judgments take 10 years to drop off of your credit report, if I remember correctly. You can always file a dispute with the credit bureau and make a notation on that particular acct/judgment.
Good luck.
