Re: Our Clients: Gerald Mortell and Chong Huang
Removal and Discharge of Mechanic's Lien Claim
Cumberland County Docket No. 11-1312 MLD
Dear Mr. Feltman:
This firm represents Gerald Mortell and Chong Huang regarding the wrongful Mechanic's Lien
you filed on their residential property located at 5128 Jennifer Circle, Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania
17050. You filed the referenced Mechanic's Lien Claim on behalf of Feltman Heating on or about
February 4, 2011. In addition to several other defects in the Mechanic's Lien Claim, the Pennsylvania
Mechanic's Lien Law requires that a Mechanic's Lien Claimant file a complaint within two years after
the filing of a Mechanic's Lien claim. As Feltman Heating has not filed a complaint to obtain judgment
on the Mechanic's Lien Claim in accordance with the requirements of the Pennsylvania Mechanic's
Lien Law,the Mechanic's Lien Claim cannot be pursued and must be dismissed and discharged.
We are writing this letter on behalf of our clients demanding that you take the necessary steps
with the Prothonotary of the Court of Common Pleas of Cumberland County to remove, dismiss and
discharge the Mechanic's Lien Claim. If you do not do so within ten days of the date of this letter, we
will be forced to file a motion requesting the Court to remove, dismiss and discharge the Mechanic's
Lien Claim. If we are forced to do so, we will seek attorney's fees on behalf of our clients. We trust
that this will not be necessary and that you will immediately take steps to have the Mechanic's Lien
Claim removed, dismissed and discharged. I ask that you send my office a copy of a clocked-in
praecipe indicating that you have done so. Should you have any questions regarding this matter, please
contact me.
Very truly yours,
Thomas O. Williams
