Once the judgment is paid off and the law firm sends you the paperwork stating that the judgment is "satisfied". Contact the clerks office or judge that handled the original paperwork. They will tell you to forward the original copies to the office (make sure you make copies first before sending) with a stamp returned envelope. If possible send it certified or registered (this way you get a receipt of delivery). The judge that handled your case will sign off and stamp with raised seal. It takes a few weeks by the time you get it back.
Depending on your court system you can go down there but it is not guaranteed that a judge will sign that day. I just mailed it. Well i did not have to pay anything except for the certified notification. Make sure you call the courts just in case they require a processing fee.
