Discharging Lis Pendens in Ohio

Lis pendens, Latin for "suit pending," is written notice that a lawsuit has been filed which concerns the title to, or interest in, a specific parcel of real property. The notice alerts potential lenders or buyers that the title to the property has come into question because of the pending legal action.

Ohio's statutes do not provide much guidance regarding lis pendens. Sections 2703.26-27 of the Ohio Revised Code discuss recording locations for the notice and restrict property transfers while the title is subject to lawsuit. Section 5309.58 clarifies the same details for registered land.

Once a lis pendens is filed, what about removing it? The process varies by state, but in general, removal happens one of two ways: expungement (removal) or discharge. Expungement requires a judicial directive to cancel the notice. The judge's order gets recorded, according to state and local requirements, and anything else necessary for the specific situation. For discharge, the party who filed the original notice completes and records a document that officially withdraws the complaint.

The discharge form identifies the parties, the property subject to lawsuit, court details and case number, and any other information relevant to the specific situation. Because it gets entered into the property records, the form should meet state and local recording standards.

Discharging a lis pendens can be tricky. Take time to understand the rules. Don't hesitate to speak to an attorney with questions about the lis pendens process, or for any other issue related to real property in Ohio.

Forms used, created quitclaim deed that the county accepted without a second look (turns out they see deeds.com forms regularly via erecording and in person). Will be back for any real estate related forms I need and they carry. Will always be my first stop. Also, will use erecording next time, mad I didn't see it this time.

Sorry to hear that your expectations were missed. Your order has been canceled. We do hope that you find something more suitable to your expectations elsewhere. Do keep in mind that purchasing legal forms should not be an exploratory endeavor.

The website was easy to navigate but only needed one form. The guide was helpful also. Cost want high but contains many documents that I didn't need but may someday. Could not save form after completed but printed copies that needed to be court filed.

I saved a ton of money doing it on my own versus through legal counsel. When I took it to the auditor/recorder today, there was absolutely no problems.

Frankly, if our tax dollars were being used to run government "services" correctly, we wouldn't need Deeds.comrnrnSince the sun will burn out before government is run correctly, Deeds.com provides an important, efficient, time-saving service that, all things considered, offers big savings over time-and-soul-draining struggles with government agencies.

After some initial general confusion -- (we sold a small piece of land privately and therefore do not typically prepare such documentation (!)) -- we were able to purchase and download all forms from Deeds.com and understand how to complete it/them. The help is all there, we just needed to read and study it - the "Example" helped alot. We were able to complete the Document per your online form(s) and then take it to be signed/notarized - and take the completed paper document to the Registry -- and it is now all registered and we are All Set. rn Took the morning (only). THANK YOU. A wonderful tool!!
