assuming thatthe lien has been filed or recorded in the county clerks office...you must do the following...speak with the creditor or attorney for the creditor and request a "release of lien", "discharge of lien" or "satisfaction of lien"...you are entitled to this document under the law...request that they mail this document directly to you and NOT to the county clerk...once you have received this document, take it directly to the county clerks office and have it filed...if the county clerk is requested to do so by you, they will return this document to you after it has been processed by the clerks office, which can take several months...but once the clerk has accepted this document for filing, and posted it in the public records, then your lien is released from your property

What happens when a lien on a condominium is not paid and then it is taken to court?

A lien encumbers the named property until it is paid or satisfied. In most cases the property cannot be transferred, sold or refinanced unless an agreement is reached with the lien holder. (The exception being marital property held as Tenancy By The Entirety when only one spouse is the judgment debtor). It is unclear what the term "taken to court" means. One possibility is that the lien has been perfected making it a secured debt and the lien holder is requesting the court to order a forced sale of the property.

What is a lien on property?

A lien is a legal claim against the real property of another as security for the payment of debt. A lien gives the lienholder the right to sell the property to satisfy the debt if it is not otherwise paid. The property cannot be mortgaged or sold until the lien has been paid. A lien arises only under certain circumstances such as a mortgage, court judgment or a local, state or federal tax lien. A mechanic's lien can be recorded but those have a short life and usually must be pursued in court for a lien of longer duration. Liens have varying statutes of limitation.
