    Default Chapter 7 and Judgments

    My question involves bankruptcy in the state of: Pennsylvania

    I have a recorded judgement against me recorded from Discover Card for $10,000+ from 2008.

    My question is if I file Chapter 7 what happens to the judgement?

    Will I ever have to pay the money if I sell my home in the future if it is discharged?

    If the judgement is only good for 5 years, what are the chances they will renew it?

    The credit card is in my name only but the house is in both myself and my wife's name.

    Thank you in advance.

    A judgment for credit card debt should be dischargeable.

    You will have to ask the judgment creditor how often they renew judgments.

    I cannot predict what the creditor will do in the future to collect the money you owe, assuming that the debt is not discharged.
