In May, 2006 a civil judgment was filed against me, in which the creditor was Capital One Bank. As a result of this judgment, my employer was ordered to deduct a certain % of my paycheck - which was to be sent to the court - until the judgment amount was paid in full. A few months ago, this amount was finally paid in full, and no more deductions are being taken from my paycheck for this purpose.

I looked at a credit report today, and I see that this civil judgment is listed as a Public Record.

Question: How long should I expect this to remain on my credit report, now that the judgment has been fully satisfied? Is there anything I can do to alter this timeline?


Thank you,
Daniel
