Maine Li's Pendent Notice is a legal document filed in the state of Maine to provide notice of a pending legal action or lawsuit on a property. It serves as a public notice to potential buyers, lenders, and other interested parties that there is a pending legal dispute involving the property mentioned in the notice. Li's Pendent, derived from Latin, means "suit pending." This notice is typically filed by a party who claims an interest in the property and wishes to protect that interest during the litigation process. It enables the claiming party to establish a priority interest over other parties who may attempt to acquire or encumber the property while the legal action is ongoing. The Maine Li's Pendent Notice must contain specific elements to be valid and effective. These include the names of the parties involved in the lawsuit, a description of the property, information about the court where the lawsuit has been filed, case number, date of the Li's Pendent filing, and the legal basis for the claim. There are different types of Maine Li's Pendent Notices based on the nature of the lawsuits or legal actions involved. Some common types include: 1. Foreclosure Li's Pendent: Filed by a lender during a mortgage foreclosure process to notify interested parties that the property is subject to foreclosure proceedings. 2.

Quiet Title Li's Pendent: Filed to resolve ownership disputes or clarify title issues associated with a property. It helps to bring all interested parties forward and allows the court to determine the rightful property owner. 4.
