Legal Question in Family Law in California

lien on property

My husbands ex wife, put a lien on our home for $525.00. We owed her one month of child support, and was making payments to her. She told her attorney a lie, that we weren't,so he put the lien. Then the ex does a writ of execution, asking for $708, but didn't tell her attorney we made payments and owed her $525. I made copies of all the payments and faxed them to her attoreny. I went and got a cashier check for the balance, sent it to her attorney. We have been requesting a letter from him stating that we don't owe her any money, so we can get this lien off. Is her attorney suppose to give us a letter staing this? Also, since she lied to her attorney and filed all these papers against us, isn't that considered lying and harrasment? Please don't aks us to get a letter from the ex, as my husband wants no contact with her.

Re: lien on property

If the lien is from a child support judgment then you would need a satisfaction of judgment from the ex. If the ex does not do this in a timely manner then you should inform her that you will take legal action to remove the cloud on your title.
