Also referred to as a Georgia lien discharge bond, this surety bond effectively lifts a lienholder&#8217;s claim to the encumbered property, freeing the same for transfer by its owner. Georgia Code <a href=\"http:\/\/law.justia.com\/codes\/georgia\/2010\/title-44\/chapter-14\/article-8\/part-3\/44-14-364\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Title 44<\/a> details the specific requirements of the bond.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;A property owner\u00a0or the contractor employed to improve said property may, before or after foreclosure proceedings are instituted, discharge the lien by filing a bond in the office of the county clerk where the lien was filed. The surety bond must guarantee payment\u00a0to the holder of the lien\u00a0in any sum that may be found to be due the lienholder upon the trial of any lien action that may be filed by the lienholder. The litigation must commence within 365 days from the time the claim of lien is filed. The lien discharge bond must be equal to no less than\u00a0double the amount claimed under that lien except in cases involving a lien against residential property, in which event the <strong>Georgia lien discharge bond<\/strong> may be equal to\u00a0the amount claimed under the lien. Upon the filing of the bond parcel\u00a0shall be discharged from the lien. Within seven days of filing the bond, the owner or contractor must\u00a0send a notice of the filing and a copy of the bond by registered or certified mail or statutory overnight delivery to the lienholder at the address stated on the lien or, if no such address is shown for the lien claimant, to the person shown as having filed such lien on behalf of the lienholder. If the bond is filed by a contractor\u00a0must also be sent to the owner of the property, provided that whenever the lien claimant or the owner is an entity on file with the Secretary of State&#8217;s Corporations Division, sending the notice of filing a\u00a0bond and a copy of the bond to the company&#8217;s address or the registered agent&#8217;s address on file with the Secretary of State is considered proper service of legal process. Failure to send this notice and a copy of the Georgia mechanic&#8217;s lien release bond\u00a0however does not \u00a0in itself invalidate the bond for purposes of lien discharge.\u00a0The clerk of the superior court in the filing jurisdiction may\u00a0rely upon the amount specified in the claim of lien in determining the sufficiency of\u00a0the bond amount, to discharge.<\/p>\n<p><em>Georgia surety bond<\/em> leader, Surety One, Inc. is THE most agile and service-oriented underwriter of judicial bonds in the United States.
