A "discharge" removes the lien from specific property.
First, if no lawsuit is filed within a year, the homeowner can obtain a certificate from the circuit court clerk confirming that no lawsuit has been filed and the lien is removed by recording the clerk certificate with the register of deeds. The second way is through a bonding-off process.
A Lien Release must include the following Information for it to be valid: The name, address and contact information of the lienholder. The date the lien was created. A description of the asset that is being released from lien.
