When it rains it pours

In 2011 I sold my car to my sister.
She let one of her friends drive it and I found out it hit someone else's car before it was transferred into her name.
So I discover I have a judgement that is not on my credit report but does appear on the county website from this.

What can I do. This will come up if I ever want to buy a house. Any one have anything I'm sitting here near bawling.

Was the judgement paid by your insurance company?

That vehicle was no longer on the policy as it was sold to her I removed it. I was under the impression that she transferred it over later that day after we saw the notary. I am wondering if it's to late to file a motion to vacate. This happened in 2011. I have a common name and I just happened to be on the court website and I clicked on everyone case not expecting anything then I see one under my name but has my sisters bff unique name on it once u click it. I confronted them both and they are willing to cooperate

The judgement is against all 3 of you? Is it paid?

It's not paid and is only against me and the best friend no mention of my sister

First, the bestie needs to come up with the money, then I would consider calling the attorney and asking if they'll vacate the judgement for payment. Explain to him what happened and that you would rather deal with it the easy way vs going to court to have it vacated etc. If he says no, hire an attorney. Don't call until you have the money

She is homeless and currently wanted for theft she will never pay it's 2600 dollars. It's sad. I was excited about my rebuild it's not on my credit. I don't know if I should just give up and file bk or what

Just my two cents. Don't give up. And don't file BK. Just continue what you are doing with your rebuild. It is 6 years old now and you were never served with any notice either. So just continue what you are doing save some money up and once you have it, if you want to handle it then contact the county attorney.But not until you have the money in hand.
