In CA and in process of short sale when HOA filed a lien and now threatened foreclosure. Ex spouse filed chp 7 so everything on hold now. Can HOA foreclose on the property once chp 7 is done?

Yes, and perhaps sooner, if they go into bankruptcy court and ask for relief from the automatic stay, which is frequently granted in foreclosure matters. An ex-spouse? Where are the attorneys who handle or handled the bankruptcy and the divorce? They should be providing advice on the foreclosure threat.
