Oftentimes, with a mechanic's lean, the person/company can sue to force payment or foreclosure on the property. If your sale is that soon, this response may be too late. I hope you have either paid, requested a delay or attempted to contact a lawyer to fix this situation. Try www.attorneypages.com.
