A Kentucky Order Avoiding Judicial Lien (KO AJL) is a court order that prevents a lien from attaching to real property in the state of Kentucky. Goals are used when a party has a claim against an individual or company that may be secured by a lien, but the party wishes to prevent the lien from attaching to their real property. There are two types of Goals: those issued before a lien has been recorded and those issued after a lien has been recorded. A KO AJL issued before a lien is recorded can be used to prevent the lien from attaching to the property, while a KO AJL issued after the lien is recorded can be used to remove the lien from the property.
