[WSBARP] DOT Survived after BK

Hi Listmates,

I have a new client who owns a property and had a Note/DOT. During “The Great Recession”, he claimed BK, included the loan, and never made any payments again and has not heard anything back from the lender either way.

Recently, he pulled a title report, and it seems that the DOT survived and was not stripped in the BK.

When this happens, from a title standpoint, would you expect a quiet title to remove the DOT, or is this something that has to be done via a court order in BK court?

Thanks.
