If a construction lien (or mechanic's lien, as it is sometimes referred to) is not properly filed, or has defects in the lien itself (liens are highly technical documents), it may be discharged. An attorney can bring an action to discharge a lien. In New Jersey, this can be done either through an Order to Show Cause, or by forcing the lienor to bring an action to foreclose and defend the lien.
