How do I find out if lien was settled after my property was sold in foreclosure?

A bail bond for $40,000 was taken out with my property as collateral in Arizona.

The house was sold in foreclosure almost a year ago. I recently received a letter from bail bond lawyer asking for $60,000. What should I do regarding this

situation? I’m retired and handicap. I don’t have that kind of money.

Social security and retirement income is protected by law and can't be garnished.  You don't have to pay debt.  A cease and desist letter under the fair debt collection practices act can be sent to a collector to stop unwanted contact by phone or mail.  You have nothing to worry about.
