Depends on what kind of judgment it is.
If it's a Tax Lien (state, local, city, federal, etc) those can stay on indefinitely if not paid/released, but once they're paid it's 7 years from the date paid.
But most judgments like small claims, civil, child support, remain for 7 years from the filing date.
