Answer

Can someone stop my lien?

YES.

Any person known to have an interest in the vehicle may stop your lien by filing a Declaration of Oppisition with the California Department of Motor Vehicles within the timeframe allowed by law (Typically within 10 days of mailing the Notice of Pending Lien Sale.) A Declaration of Opposition is (and must be) included with the Notice of Pending Lien Sale we mail to all Registered Owners, Legal Owners and Interested Parties.
