Options Invalidate the lien.

A lien expires 10 years from the date of recording or filing, unless we extend it. If we extend the lien, we will send a new Notice of State Tax Lien and record or file it with the county recorder or California Secretary of State. We will not release expired liens.

The lien typically needs to be resolved before or during the sale to provide the buyer with a clear title. Buyers and lenders usually require assurance that the lien will not transfer with the property.
Most judgments (the court order saying what you're owed) expire in 10 years. This means you can't collect on it after 10 years. To avoid this, you can ask the court to renew it. A renewal lasts 10 years.
