Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Illinois

I am not aware of a specific procedure for "removal" of a lis pendens notice. In theory, the purpose of the document is to give notice of the lawsuit, nothing more. It points a party reviewing the title to another place, the court record. So, the removal is not critical as it would simply be a "pointer" to a dismissed lawsuit. I expect that title companies will underwrite a transaction without raising the lis pendens if the case has been dismissed. I hope that helps give this some perspective. If you are in the midst of a transaction, perhaps your question can be better answered in context.

Record a certified copy of the dismissal orders related to each case. Recorded documents do not get "erased" but rather "undone" by a subsequent document, something like and on/off switch. So for example if you have a mortgage, the way it is "undone" is with a release deed. For a lis pendens, it is the dismissal order. You will have to go to court to get a certified copy and then record it.
