[WSBARP] The lingering lien

[Andrew Hay]

Client has a lien filed May 2020 on his property for a furnace installed during construction.  General and furnace supplier got in a fight and bill remains unresolved.  Homeowner wants to refi but lien is a cloud on title.

Of course there is a claim against the contractor

No action was filed to foreclose so the lien is not foreclosable.  Does the expiration of the lien now make it removable as a frivolous lien?  Is there any other way to get fees in an action against the supplier?
