How do you remove recorded judgements after Chapter 7 bankruptcy case is discharged and closed?
I filed Chapter 7 and before we had the chance to remove the recorded Judgements, the court discharged the case and closed it. I wonder how to remove the judgements without re-opening the case. We know that the judgements were wiped out in the bankruptcy, but not sure how the recording can be voided and removed? So if I attempt to purchase real estate in a couple of years, the escrow and title companies wouldn’t bother asking me to deal with those judgements???

They should be noted as discharged in your bankruptcy, but that does not get them removed.
