Default Civil Court Judgment & Bankruptcy

I filed for bankruptcy back in 2003 and am still under bankruptcy protection. There is a woman who is trying to sue me in civil court for defamation. I read that if I don't show up for court and the judge enters a default judment against me, that since I am under bankruptcy that the judgment cannot be enforced. Is this true and if so can it be enforced once the bankruptcy protection ends after the 7 years?

I am in the state of Wisconsin
