In Minnesota does a mechanics lien supersede a first lien holder?

A first lien holder is usually the lender or mortgage holder. Mechanics or Construction Liens do not supercede any lien placed before them or mortgage recorded after the lien is filed. In Minnesota mechanics liens are only enforceable for one year after the last day of service. Any lien holder, regardless of where they are in priority, can file to enforce their lien at anytime during that one year period.

Who can file a lien on property after a bankruptcy discharge?

No one. Liens can only arise on valid debts. They can be statutory (such as a mechanics lien) or judicial ( a judgment lien). However, bankruptcy discharges the underlying debt, unless the debt was one not subject to discharge (such as taxes of a student loan). These creditors can pursue these debts, receive a judgment and enforce collection through a judgment lien.
