This is a complicated set of facts, and you should address your question with a local attorney immediately.
I have some immediate thoughts from what I can extract from your question. It would be the property owner, but, based on the facts you stated, you are likely far outside the time limit for a lien on a owner occupied residence. You also reference a judge. If you have already been party to a lawsuit regarding this claim, there is a good chance that you had a mandatory counterclaim in that suit that must have been raised or it would be waived.
I should also add that the document you signed could have been a release of any lien or claim.
