I havea judgement against someone in small claims court. I filed a lien on their property after it has started court proceedings for foreclosure. How do i add my lien to the foreclosure hearings so i get paid too?

Re: Adding a property lien to a house that has started foreclosure proceedings
You need the court's permission to intervene in the foreclosure. It is too late to just file the lien because the foreclosure is pending. Filing the lien may protect you only if there is a voluntary sale, but not a foreclosure sale.
