On another case, HOA still billing for fees when Debtor abandoned house before bankruptcy. It is my understanding these just do not go away and the debtor is liable, even after bankruptcy. Is this true?

Here is a sample -- you will notice it is a form. This one was granted.
Please see the court website for a current version as well as for the
order, which may have changed.
I believe now the proof of service for orders is different -- please do not
copy this order, it is just a sample. I'll be honest -- the POS
requirements on the orders baffle me a bit. This one was signed and yet it
is blank -- maybe different judges have different requirements. Now I have
been filling out POS.

As a follow up to Peters remarks, this would be a good time for you to look at the three different definitions in 101 for the three types of liens: judicial lien, security interest and statutory lien. The distinctions are important and relevant to your case.
BTW: I am not a professional corporation, but I have potential. Maybe someday I will be a potentate.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me.

In a chapter 7 case can a judicial lien (on R.P.) be avoided in a chapter 7
case?
Some were the result of money jugments and another is for back HOA fees.
I understand that you can discharge (in chapter 7) the underlying debt, but
can anything be done about the lien?
Thanks in advance,

Yes, a judicial lien can be avoided on real property in a chapter 7
bankruptcy to the extent that the judicial lien impairs the debtor's
exemption. It requires a separate motion filed with the court.
Check out optional court form F 9013-1.5.
