Under what theory? The creditor is taking no affirmative act to collect the debt. The discharge injunction doesn't require a creditor to take affirmative acts, merely to refrain from doing so (with the exception of reporting to credit agencies). I haven't found any authority to throw at the creditor, and that's what I'm looking for. Most cases I read suggest that I, not the creditor, need to take action here; but those cases are pretty old, and I haven't found anything more recent than a decade.- John D. Faucher

Subject: [cdcbaa] Avoiding a lien that isn't a lien Hello dear listers: Client had an abstract of judgment recorded against her in 2011, when she owned no real property. She filed a chapter 7 bankruptcy and got her discharge in 2016. This year, her husband granted her a half-interest, jointly, in his house. Abstract creditor has so far refused to release the abstract, and client can't refinance because of it. How do I move forward? It's not a statutory lien, nor a lien impairing an exemption (actually, it may be, but that seems beside the point here, because it's a lien that doesn't even exist). It's not avoidable under 547, because not preferential. Under In re Thomas, 102 BR 199, it looks like I need to file a motion to expunge the abstract. Is a motion to expunge still the prop
