How do you file a judgment against another person?

The individual wishing to obtain a writ of judgment must follow due process of law as required by the state in which the judgment is to be filed. Generally that would mean the person owed the debt (plaintiff) would file a civil suit in the appropriate state court against the debtor (defendant). If the issue is one of a Mechanic's Lien against real property owned by the debtor, the person to whom money is owed can contact the county recorder/assessor's office in the county where the property is located for information on how to file a claim.

Can a notice of lis pendens be filed prior to the actual lawsuit?

No. In order to file a lis pendens, the action must have been initiated and must be pending. However, depending on the type of case, you may be able to file a lien to protect your interest. I would see a real estate lawyer (if you are not already working with one)--real estate law issues can get very complicated.

If you are in foreclosure for your first mortgage are you still responsible for the second mortgage if there is a second mortgage on the property?

If your first mortgage is in the process of foreclosure that foreclosure will extinguish the second mortgage as to the real estate. The foreclosure of the first mortgage terminates all subsequent interests in the real estate. After the foreclosure the real estate can be sold free and clear of any subsequent mortgages or liens. However, the debtor remains responsible for the second mortgage debt.

Any remaining proceeds from the foreclosure sale after the first mortgage is satisfied are paid toward the second mortgage. In some states the second mortgagee can seek a "deficiency judgment" in court against the debtor. However, even when possible it's not often done due to the costs and the slim probability the debtor will have the ability to pay.

You should check your state laws.

Is there a statutory right of redemption in Washington state?

What does it mean in a deed that states 'title to the property should not be a merged with the lien of the aforesaid mortgage and this conveyance should not be so construed'?

Some form of that phrasing is used in deeds in lieu of foreclosure and deeds from a mortgagor to the bank (to avoid foreclosure) in order for the bank to be able to preservethe outstanding mortgage debt.

Without that language the mortgage obligation would be extinguished when the bank takes title to the premises.

What is rule of mineral rights ownership when death to other party having one half mineral rights?

As with any probate estate, it would depend on any number of other issues, including the actual words of the grant of ownership (jointly, in common), then (assuming common ownership) whether there was a valid will of the other party and what the will says about property rights, and if no will, then where the person was domiciled when he or she died and what their laws of intestacy have to say, and if any heirs can be found, and if you can negotiate with the heirs, and so forth.

If, for example, you were named on a deed as "A and B", and B dies, then B's share passes to his or her heirs, whoever they are. If there is a will that gives the rights to A, then obviously A now has all the mineral rights, which would be exactly the same as if the deed had said "A and B as joint tenants with right of survivorship," although the estate tax issues may be different.

Who pays the liens on a sheriff's sale?

In a sheriff's sale, the responsibility for paying liens typically falls to the winning bidder who purchases the property. However, the specifics can vary based on state laws and the terms of the sale. Generally, any outstanding liens may need to be settled before the property is transferred to the new owner, but some liens might remain attached to the property, depending on their nature. It's essential for bidders to conduct thorough due diligence to understand any existing liens before participating in the sale.

Can a person who owes on property to a bank divide that property and sell to family member but then default on original loan and be able to still keep that small piece of property that was split?

No. The mortgage follows the whole property and it would all be foreclosed for non-payment. The bank would need to agree to release it lien on the property being transferred for you scenario to take place.

Added: Unfortunately for the tenant. VERY few. Under normal circumstances, when a rental residence is sold to a new owner, the home is sold "subject to" the existing lease. However, when the home is foreclosed on by the lender, they have no legal requirement to continue to honor the lease.

You can give back the home to the lien holder without going through foreclosure. You just need to make arrangements with the lender. It is not smart at this point to surrender your house after so many payments.

Can a creditor request an automatic stay be lifted after nine months into a 100 percent Chapter 13 plan with payments made on time?

A creditor can ask for anything. The question really is whether or not it is likely that the request will be granted. I assume since you have made all of your payments per the plan, you have proof of such in the form of cancelled checks, bank statements, money order receipts, etc. If the payments are going to the trustee and then to the creditor, then you should find out whether or not the trustee has released the money to the creditor. Now, what you will need to do is hire a lawyer to file an objection to the motion for relief of stay and take your proof with you. It is unlikely that the stay will be lifted, however, you should not assume that it won't and do nothing.
