Kirkeby v. Superior Court of Orange County green

2015“The UFTA expressly provides for remedies such as attachments, injunctions, and the appointment of receivers.” ( Kirkeby, supra, 33 Cal.4th at pp. 651–652.) “‘[A]lthough [the UFTA] does not provide for notices of lis pendens, it does not exclude them either.’” (Kirkeby, at p. 652.) The Kirkeby court described the language in Civil Code section 3439.07, subdivision (a)(3)(C) that a 7 creditor bringing a UFTA claim is entitled to “[a]ny other relief the circumstances may require” as “broad,” supporting the recording of a lis pendens.

Hunting World, Inc. v. Superior Court green

2004With respect to a lis pendens as a remedy, “[although [the UFTA] does not provide for notices of lis pendens, it does not exclude them either.” (Hunting World, supra, 22 Cal.App.4th at p. 73 .) Support for including a lis pendens as a remedy is found in Civil Code section 3439.07, subdivision (a)(3)(C), which entitles a creditor bringing a UFTA claim to “[a]ny other relief the circumstances may require.” We believe that this broad language allows a lis pendens remedy.
