Heading: The Judgment Lien

Text: On November 18, 2004, Auto Now Acceptance Co., LLC (“Auto Now”) obtained a judgment against Debtor in the amount of $8,082.37, plus interest and costs. On October 20, 2005, Auto Now filed a judgment lien against Debtor. The judgment lien was not addressed in the 2007 consent decree even though it had attached to the property prior to the second divorce. Creditor testified that she was not aware of the judgment lien until she offered the property for sale. Although Debtor's affidavit addresses the circumstances preceding imposition of the judgment lien, the record does not disclose whether Debtor knew that the judgment lien had attached to the property at the time of the 2007 divorce proceeding. On appeal Debtor asserts that Creditor knew about the circumstances leading to the judgment lien.
