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.

The papers allowed me to get done what I needed. But for the price I would expect a spell check. There were spelling errors when there should not have been any. Please proof read

I am an attorney who was trying to draft some deeds in arizona. The deed templates coupled with the document instructions saved me hours work. At 1st I was skeptical, so spent hours figuring out how to draft the documents, but could have saved so much time If I had just spend the $20 sooner. Would use again is needed a deed format as a basis for my drafting.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

I did not receive the information in a timely fashion as stated on the website. I would not recommend this service.
Thank you for your feedback Sandra. In reviewing your order I see that it did take our staff 11 minutes to respond to your order. That is significantly longer than the 10 minute average listed on our website. Even in these unprecedented times of quarantines and staff shortages our failure is unacceptable. We have fully refunded your account and we do hope that you found something more suitable to your needs elsewhere.
