ORDER CONCERNING RELEASE OF JUDGMENT LIEN Blackburn, J. This matter is before the court on its own motion. In an effort to comply with the terms of this court's Order Granting Defendants/counterclaimants' Forthwith Renewed Motion for Stay of Execution Pending Appeal Pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 62(d) and for Approval of Supersedeas Bond [#194], filed October 1, 2007, plaintiff, Peter Hornick, filed an executed Release of Judgment Lien [#195] with the court, via the court's CM/ECF electronic filing system. The Clerk of the Court does not hold the original of Hornick's Release of Judgment Lien. Defendants Gary and Joanne Boyce have filed a supersedeas bond with the court, in an effort to comply with my order [#194]. That order requires that the Clerk of the Court release Hornick's Release of Judgment Lien to Gary and Joanne Boyce once the Boyces have filed a supersedeas bond in compliance with my order. Counsel for the Boyces has indicated that they will accept, at least provisionally, a copy of
