Rebuilding Your Credit

[Jack29]

Hi Evreyone,

I went to court to vacate a judgement. got a court date July 2012, the plaintiff and I arrived. The judge asked me to pay 60%, we agreed, and the judge signed that the motion is vacated and wrote that after payment the plaintiff should send me a "stipulation of discontiuance" within 30 days of payment. I sent a payment the same day of the verdict, and never heard from the lawyer again and the judgement is NOT removed.

I would REALLY appreciate your help and guidence.

Thank you very much!

Can anyone please help?

I would think contacting the lawyer might be a good place to start.  Just send him a copy of the payment, the court documents, and remind him to follow through.

The lawyer is trying to play games...

If the judge signed the motion to vacate then all you need is a copy of the official court papers and send them in to the bureau as a dispute saying that the judgment is vacated and should be deleted from your credit report.

We did that, but no luck :-(

For yours... instead of having the word dismissed in big red font; use the word Vacated.

Where do I sent these letters to?
