Copy the exact URL that's ranking
Search your own name in a private window and copy the full address of every result carrying the case, not just the top one. Every route below needs that exact page URL, and this page covers unicourt.com, trellis.law and judyrecords.com.
Check the host on each one. If the address ends in .gov, that's the court's own docket. Nothing on this page reaches it. Google's results-about-you policy declines removal for pages owned by government institutions. Set those results aside and work the rest.
A case indexed on five sites is five to fifteen separate submissions, each with its own proof-of-relationship step. Set aside an afternoon. And keep the list of URLs you filed on, because you'll need it again in a few months when some of them come back.
Check your court deadline before you file anything
California's small claims self-help page gives you 30 days from the Notice of Entry of Judgment to decide what you want to do. If you didn't go to the trial, you can ask the judge to cancel the decision, using form SC-135, which fits when the other side served you the wrong way or never served you at all. Then the window is 180 days from when you found out or should have found out about the judgment. Check how you were served first. Then ask your own clerk for your state's clock.
If the judgment stands and you're paying it, make sure the satisfaction gets filed. In California the other side has to file form SC-290 once you pay in full. Call the clerk afterward. Confirm it landed.
While you have the clerk on the line, ask one more thing: what's the retention period on a small claims money judgment here, and when does the clock start? Utah sets six months, running from satisfaction or expiration of the judgment. Every state writes its own schedule, so get your number and don't assume it matches Utah's.
File with UniCourt
Go to UniCourt's record removal form. It asks for your country and state, the exact case page URL, your relationship to the record, your name, address and contact details, your reason, and supporting documentation. It's free at every stage, including the appeal. Don't pay anyone to press submit.
You have to send this one yourself. UniCourt accepts requests only from the party, their legal guardian or fiduciary, or their attorney. An attorney who files it for you will supply a bar number and bar state on the form.
Pick the reason that matches a document you actually hold. Attach it. UniCourt asks whether the record was sealed or expunged by a court order, whether it exposes you to increased risk of physical harm, whether it's the result of identity theft, or whether it concerns and adversely affects a minor. It says it typically decides within 30 days and answers in writing.
If the answer is no, you have 30 days from that notice to appeal. An appeal only counts if you attach substantive new information or documentation, and appeals are final, so don't send the first request thin and plan to fix it later.
File with Trellis from the docket page, not the form
Trellis takes a request only when it starts on the record itself, and Its support page says requests must be submitted by pressing the Request Redaction button directly on the URL you want redacted. Search your name on trellis.law, open the docket page, and use that button, because in Trellis's own words, email requests are not processed.
The form asks for your name, your email, whether the record is about you, and why you want it redacted. One submission covers one docket URL. Three cases means three forms, and Trellis charges nothing for any of them.
Redaction removes public and logged-out access and asks search engines not to index the record, but Trellis states plainly that it doesn't control Google. For deletion rather than redaction, upload an Order to Seal from the applicable court, which Trellis says it processes immediately. Without an order, requests go in the order they're received, which means you wait your turn. Don't chase it on day three.
If the answer is no, your next move is the court order, not a second form.
judyrecords takes an email and nothing else
judyrecords' info page publishes no opt-out, no criteria and no timeline. It lists only two contact addresses, so email info@judyrecords.com with the exact URL, your name, and one line saying the record is about you, and keep it to that.
Expect nothing back on a schedule. Note the date you sent it, put it on your list with the others, and move to the next site. Don't sit and wait.
Send it to Google only after the page changes
Google's Refresh Outdated Content tool is the last step, never the first. It works only once the page is gone or significantly different, and Google says outright that if the information is still on the live page, the tool is not for you. Submit it the day you find the result and you've spent the request. For nothing.
An approved request expires after 180 days. Set a reminder for month five and search your name again then, and don't aim it at the court's own .gov docket, which Google won't take down.
What this won't do, and when to check again
None of this seals or expunges the court's own record. Satisfying or vacating the judgment doesn't delete the docket entry either. Say the judgment is valid, service was proper, it's still unsatisfied, and it's sitting on a government portal, and then there's nothing to file.
Anything you clear off the copy sites can come back. Search your own name every few months and re-file on whatever's returned, working from the list of URLs you built in step one.
If the damage is a background check rather than Google, that's a different form entirely. Dispute the entry with the screening company and attach the satisfaction or the vacatur order. Also, nobody should charge you to pull a judgment off a credit report.
