I recently paid off a judgement. I used a credit card to pay this off. Now the creditor does not want to issue papers for release of judgment until they are sure I can not dispute the item with the credit card company. They want to wait 30-60 days before they issue the release papers so I can not dispute it with the credit card company. I would appreciate any insite that anybody could give me. Is this normal or should I call and dispute this item with the credit card company now before it goes any further.
check with an attorney. most states have a provision requiring the judgment creditor to furnish you with a release within a specified period. the creditor may be liable for damages and staturory penalties for failing to comply.
