Requirements of an Illinois Lis Pendens include; (the title of the action, the parties to it, the court where it was brought and a description of the real estate) Sec. 2-1901. A Lis Pendens is considered constructive notice once recorded in the county where the property is located, subsequent buyers or lien holders would be bound by the outcome of the case, (for the purposes of this Section, be deemed a subsequent purchaser and shall be bound by the proceedings to the same extent and in the same manner as if he or she were a party thereto) Sec.2-1901 Often cases include multiple plaintiff and defendants, this form has adequate space for multiple parties.

The release of mortgage form was OK, and accepted at the recorder's office, but there were some problems. Many of the fields to type in were too small to accept the data, and I could not find a way to change the field size or use a smaller font. Otherwise I was satisfied.
Your feedback is a crucial part of our dedication to ongoing improvement. Thank you for your insightful comments.
