As part of that process, PA had received a judgment in excess of $300,000. PA had purchased a Property for the benefit of her parents. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Property itself was titled in PA\u2019s name, however, PA\u2019s parents had acquired the property using their own funds, resided at the property, paid for maintenance and insurance, and they exercised exclusive dominion and control over the Property. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unfortunately, because the Property was titled in PA\u2019s name, the $300,000 judgment lien attached to the Property.\u00a0By the time it reached our office, the Property was scheduled to be sold at auction by the creditor.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At the 11th hour, we filed an exparte motion to stay the foreclosure arguing that, even though legal title resided with PA, the equitable (actual) property belonged to PA\u2019s parents. The matter was set for evidentiary trial before Judge Styn. At the evidentiary hearing, we were able to establish that, because equitable title rested with PA\u2019s parents, there was no Property for the lien to attach to, and therefore, the Property could not be sold by the creditor.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><!-- close content main div --><\/div><\/div><div id='av_section_2'  class='avia-section
