I don't know that there really is a limit for an actual judgement. You've had the notice and there are no longer any surprises. Credit Card debt is considered an Open Line of Credit. The Statute of Limitations for collection in California is 4 years. That is from the last use or payment. My best advice is to consult an attorney in California.

How do you remove a judgment on your title that is Past the statute of Limitations?

If it is a judgment, that is a court-ordered debt to be paid, there is never a time it will be removed until you pay the court. There is not a statute of limitations in this case. Once you get a receipt for payment from the court, you can take the extra steps to report the payment to the credit bureaus.


Can you still be contacted on a debt that was written off in 1993?

There is no statute of limitations on collecting a bad debt. If you owed the debt in 1993 and never paid it, you still owe the debt. A judgment has a statute of limitations that is set by both the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act and laws of the state in which you live, or the credit (or collection agency) does business "...whichever is longer". There are circumstances under which an 11 year old debt could be both reported on your credit, collected and filed suit on. If you suspect the statute of limitations has expired; it gives you a cause for disputing the credit report entry and a defense to the judgment.
