I've never done it, but the procedure can be different in each jurisdiction. Call the clerk's office at the court and ask how it works.
Agreed. Every state and municipality is different, so check with the clerk's office at the court to find out what you need to do.
Once the judgement has been paid and the creditor files the paperwork to indicate that the judgement has been satisfied, the entry will still stay on your credit report.
If you're already making a deal with landlord about the judgement, instead of getting him/her to file a "motion to satisfy", would s/he be willing to file paperwork to dismiss the lawsuit? That can also get the judgement removed from your CR.
EDITED!
