Do settled/paid CCJs still show on my report

As above really, having a dispute which may end in court. Both parties believe to be in the right. If judgement goes against me I am happy to pay but would the judgement itself negatively impact my credit (currently searching for first property)

     CCJs can be removed if they're paid within 28 days of the judgment.
    However once that time has passed then they're on there for 6 years. At the moment a fairly recent CCJ will pretty much scupper any chance of a mortgage.
