A judgment is discharged when it has been marked as satisfied on which two documents?

A judgment is marked as satisfied and subsequently discharged through its entry in two key documents: the Prothonotary's docket and the judgment index.

The Prothonotary's docket serves as the official record of all judicial proceedings in the court, where the entry of satisfaction provides a formal acknowledgment that the judgment has been fully paid or otherwise resolved. This ensures transparency and public notice that the debtor is no longer liable for the judgment.

The judgment index, on the other hand, acts as a searchable record that helps track judgments filed within the jurisdiction. By noting the satisfaction of the judgment in this index, it assists in maintaining accurate public records and allows creditors, potential creditors, and the general public to verify the status of a judgment against an individual or entity.

Both of these documents are crucial for effectively updating the status of a judgment and ensuring that all relevant parties have access to this important information.
