    Any unpaid subcontractors or suppliers that served a Preliminary Twenty Day Notice may record liens against the commercial property for up to 120 days after completion, which is defined as 30 days after receiving the Certificate of Occupancy. The property owner can shorten the time for filing liens to 60 days by recording a Notice of Completion with the County Recorder and serving it to those who submitted a Preliminary Notice. The general contractor closed its doors after receiving final payment, so any unpaid subcontractors or suppliers may still record liens against the property within the required time periods.
