Right, but they can't report it as new debt every month the way they can if a court order is still in effect. I agree with you that this is likely to follow him around until it's paid. But I'm curious to know why he can't get the proof he needs that he no longer owes the debt?
Thank you all for your input. The problem is that he says that he had a letter from the CS agency specifically citing a court decision and that his balance was zero. However, the agency now denies any knowledge of this letter, and no searches online have had any results in finding this court decision. BTW, this is from Nassau County, NY.
Huh. You know, this isn't necessarily relevent to credit reporting, but I wonder if he got a consult with an attorney in that jurisdiction if that might shed some light on this case law? It's sometimes possible to get a consult for cheap (like a one-hour appointment) and he would then be able to ask questions. Couldn't hurt....and might get him a lead on this caselaw.
