My landlord put a judgemnent agaisnt me I had paid the judgement to them at the office she said she will let the courts know and take care of it. I just ran a credit check on me and I saw that this was showing not paid I called the clerk of courts about this and the rep said they did not get anything from them saying I paid this. I still have the receipt but is there anything I can do to the landlord for not telling the courts I paid this. When I called the landlord about this she said she will take care of this in a day or two.

Whatever you do, do not send "any" paperwork concerning the judgment to the CRA's. It will only cement the judgment to your reports.
Take a copy of the receipt the landlord gave you and request that the court clerk place it in your file Then request a complete certified copy of the file.
Then file a dispute with the CRA's saying that you have no such judgment in your name for that amount , and request that it be removed. (send the dispute immediately after you filed the receipt and received the cert file copy from the court clerk)

it could be that you paid it in full but your landlord did not release the lien. call your court house and see if it has been released. if it has go to www.annualcredit report.com and pull all 3 bureaus and dispute it showing released. If the court house says it is not released and you have paid it you will need to get a release signed off from your old land lord and file it your self.

Only option you have if it does not get corrected is to protest it with the bureaus. You have the reciept so you will win. The only thing is, you will still show a judgement for 7 years from the date of last activity. But it will show as satisfied.

So many people with so little knowledge. First off, do you have it in writing that they will "remove" the judgement, or only say the judgement has been satisfied? That's the whole key to this. If it's not in writing, then you lose. Paid for or not.
