1. Visit the eFiling website at https://efiling.wicourts.gov/ and log in. For more information, see the article Logging into Wisconsin circuit court eFiling.
2. Select my cases from the main navigation or the [My cases] button from the bottom menu.
   
3. You can find the applicable case by entering the case number or caption in the search filter fields on the My cases page. If you are not opted in to eFile on the case, you can satisfy the judgment via non-party filing. Note: To view closed cases, select the Click here to search link near the top of the page.
4. Select the Satisfy judgment link to the right of the case on which you are filing.
   Note: If the Satisfy judgment link is unavailable, either the judgment has already been satisfied or the judgment has not yet been entered in on the case. Please contact the clerk of court of the county the case is filed in for further information.
5. Select the checkbox next to the judgment you wish to docket. Select [Continue].
6. Enter the dollar amount being satisfied in the Amount satisfied field.
7. Select [Upload Documents] to upload an Order of Satisfaction Due to Bankruptcy or a Satisfaction of Judgment in PDF format. Select the appropriate Document type from the dropdown list and enter a Document title. Then, select [Continue].
8. On the Ready to file page, select the checkbox next to the filing(s) you wish to submit, or select the checkbox next to a county name to submit all filings in that county. Then, select [File] or [File and Pay].
   Note: If you have set up a court debit account (CDA) with the circuit court you are filing in, you have the option to choose a payment method. To learn how to set up a CDA, see the Creating and managing a court debit account article. It is your responsibility to ensure sufficient funds are available in the account at the time of filing.
   When paying with a credit/debit card or eCheck via the US Bank ePayment website, a transaction fee is applied to the total.
9. On the Filings submitted page, select [Make payment with US Bank] to proceed to the US Bank ePayment website and pay the associated filing fees. See the article Making payments with US Bank for more information on making a payment through US Bank.
   Note: US Bank is the vendor that processes circuit court credit card and electronic check transactions. You do not need a US Bank checking or savings account to pay for filings on the US Bank ePayment website. You can pay using a Visa card, MasterCard, or electronic check.
10. After you submit your filing, it is transmitted to the circuit court and processed when both the filing and any required payment are received. Once the filing is processed, you receive an email confirmation and the file-stamped document(s) are visible on the My cases page, where you can print them for service to paper notice parties on the case.
    Note: Submitted documents that have not yet been processed display in Submitted status on the My cases page. They are not visible to other parties until they have been processed.
