Legal Question in Bankruptcy in Illinois

Wiping out a Judgement

A collection law firm filed a judgement against me on behalf of a credit card co. I did not appear at my court date and filed for ch. 7 two days later. I was discharged 7 mos. ago from all debts and the orig. creditor has been written off and shows a zero balance. The County Clerks office, however, shows no satisfaction for the judgement. Doesn't the ch. 7 wipe out the judgement and if so, who's responsible for updating the status of the judgement to the credit bureaus? Thank You!
