You'll need to provide some more information as to why the lien is "false." The response will depend on whether this is a public or private job. However,

Generally speaking, a GC can file a lien for labor and material supplied to homeowner. However, depending on the size of the job, there are certain notice

homeowner) of the GC's right to file a lien. Failure to provide such notice may subject the GC to penalties and damages.
