I filed a Mechanics lien in August 2021

CaliforniaLien Deadlines

This was filed due to lack of payment on a residential construction project as was filed within the 90 days. Client refused to respond. We now just received notification, they want to file with court to have us remove. Is this lien still valid? or does the customer have a right to force us to remove this lien?

If you recorded a mechanics lien more than 90 days ago and did not file a lawsuit to enforce the lien, then the owner can petition the Court to have the lien removed. If they are successful, then they can ask that the Court award attorneys' fees against you.
