More details to this question:
My boyfriend was involved in an auto collision in 2003, minor at the time driving his mothers car whom had no insurance. A judgment was filed against him for the amount of 121, 000 and was ordered by the court to pay and license was suspended until payments were made. He hasn't been able to find a job and has no assets. How is he supposed to reinstate his license without making payments for the rest of his life?

The better question is, what about the people that he damaged for $120,000.00? When do thier lives get made whole as opposed to his being inconvenienced. That stated, short of filing bankruptcy which may help address at least part of the issue, there is no means to have a judgment thrown out because it inconvenices a debtor or causes them issues. His best bet is to talk to a bankruptcy lawyer and ask DMV is a bankrupcty might allow him to get a license.
