6-29/110.00 Judicial Lien



The levy of a levying officer creates a judicial lien. (11 USC 101(36)) A judicial lien may be set aside (avoided) by the trustee or debtor. If not avoided, the judicial lien survives the bankruptcy case after the automatic stay has been terminated and the levying officer may proceed with the levy, e.g., sale, transfer property to the creditor.
