If a creditor withdrew their claim after I objected to the claim can that person now sue me in a local court?

The question depends on whether you received a discharge. If you received a discharge the creditor cannot sue you. That is a violation of the discharge injunction. Visit with your attorney regarding how to proceed forward. If you did not receive a discharge, yes, that claim, assuming no other defenses, could be pursued in state or other court.

What if I can't pay a judgment on a credit card debt, how can I get out of it, can I file bankruptcy, can I dispute it?

If the time for doing so has not already expired, you could file an appeal in the lawsuit where the judgment was rendered. You would need to assert some reason why it's wrong and point out what mistake the trial court made. If the time already has run out or if the trial court did not make some particular mistake, then I don't see any way for you to dispute the judgment at this point. You also asked whether a bankruptcy can get rid of the judgment. The answer is yes, a bankruptcy could wipe it out (which is different than disputing it).

Need specifics but generally if you are in bankruptcy all claims against the bankrupt must be brought there.
