Premise: so that they cut that out so they they couldn't have a lien on his house anymore so he did away with that and then he went to the bank because the bank gave him apparently some extra credit because they had that lien well s ince they didn't have the lien anymore they couldn't have the credit from the bank so that that got the firm in hot water

Hypothesis: They couldn't put a lien on his house because it was also in his wife's name.
Relation: neutral
