What is a county court judgement?
County Court Judgments (CCJ’s) are a ruling made in the county court against a person or company for debt that has not satisfied payments to creditors. Generally if a CCJ is paid in full within 30 days of the date of the judgment it won’t appear in the credit register. CCJ’s are a matter of public record. They are recorded and held for 6 years with the Registry Trust. If a judgment is settled after the 30 day period it will be entered into public record and it will show on any credit searches done against you by lenders, however it will show as that it has been satisfied.
