Florida I am a PI and I receive payments for my clients from various entities. Sometimes these checks are made out to my client and/or their business. I always have a POA on the client and their business and my local bank, for the past 20 years, has always let me endorse then deposit these...

I'm usually very careful with wording. It was both. 2 liens, one in Palm Beach County and one in Collier County. Neither had underlying suits or judgments they were however about to be escheated to the state of Florida in both cases. From the input here I would say the clerks got it wrong. Over...

I believe you are right in this case. There have been two other counties that I collected with little fanfare. Those liens were not challenged within the time limit and may have been a fluke with the clerk/court process. I have found that a lot of the clerks don't have a lot of procedural knowledge.

I've been reading 713 (in-between naps) It's weird that other counties have been simple forms and motions. All of them so far have been un-contested liens by the lienee. I'll read through the links provided and determine if it's something I want to file or hire an attorney to handle. There's...

Thought my title would show up.. It is Florida

We have a Real Estate attorney on standby. Got the County involved big time with all the issues. They took notice that the developer build the subdivision without any plans or permits of any kind. The County say there are making him submit and correct but moving quite slowly. Still don't know...

Construction Lien Transferred by Cash into the Courts Registry to remove the lien.

What is the general procedure for a creditor to collect when a Lien is transferred to security by the debtor? Most counties I've worked with are simple forms to fill out while others require a motion. Volusia County told me this morning that I may need to file a lawsuit. First time...

Thank You for a useful reply.

Myself and 23+ other land owners were sold a subdivision with an HOA only to find out that we actually bought in an un-recorded subdivision and it's been brought up whether we actually have an HOA or if an un-recorded subdivision can even have an HOA. We were charged for a years HOA fee at...

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Florida I recently purchased a money judgment and had the plaintiff assign me all his rights to the judgment. I do this quite often and just now hit my first snag. I filed the assignment with the court and followed with a motion to distribute...

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Florida Good Afternoon. I have a client that had a judgment against him. He paid the judgment into the courts registry to satisfy the judgment. The 20 year statue had expired a couple of years ago on this judgment. The judgment creditor was never...

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Florida Some owners in my neighborhood are trying to get street lights throughout the neighborhood. These owners are taking the approach of trying to get the required 55% of the neighbors sign a petition to take to the County Board to get an...

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Florida I am in the process of purchasing a judgment from an estate. The judgment holder died the year after the judgment was awarded. Prior to her death the holder granted a durable power of attorney to her son and daughter to sell or dispose of...
