Whenever a judgment or decree of divorce has been made or subsequently becomes a lien on real property in favor of the minor child or children of the person holding legal title to such real property, the parent, legal guardian or other person having legal custody of such minor child or children may release such lien on said real property on behalf of such minor child or children. If the support rights accruing under such judgment or decree of divorce have been assigned to the secretary for children and families pursuant to the provisions of K.S.A. 39-709, and amendments thereto, such lien may not be released without the written consent of the secretary or the secretary's designee. Such release shall be filed in the office of the clerk of the district court in which the journal entry of such judgment was filed pursuant to K.S.A. 60-2202, and amendments thereto, and shall be filed in the office of register of deeds of any county in which said real property is situated. Any such release made pursuant to this section shall be binding upon such minor child or children.
