Question

How long does a "lis pendins" last when it is attached to a property ?

Answer 1

Until the lawsuit regarding the property is adjudicated.

Answer 2

A "lis pendens" is a notice of pending legal action. It creates a "cloud" on the title to real estate, and in Pennsylvania a lis pendens is filed in the office of the Protononotary in the Judgment Index.  A lis pendens is effective for the length of time of the litigation, that is to say, until such time as judgment is rendered or the litigation is discontinued.

Answer 3

A notice of lis pendens simply places others on notice that there is legal action involved with the property.  It will be removed when the legal issue is resolved.
