A notice of satisfaction of judgment means that some or all of the judgment that you owe the judgment creditor has been paid by you. If the satisfaction states that it is a "partial" satisfaction, it means that the judgment creditor expects you to pay more to him or her.
If the satisfaction is a "full" satisfaction, it means that your obligation has been completely paid off to the judgment creditor.
