# How LND Aborts the Funding Workflow ## Metadata **Status**:: #x **Zettel**:: #zettel/fleeting **Created**:: [[2025-03-20]] ## Synopsis LND nodes will abort the funding workflow on errors or time out. There's an `AbandonChannel` RPC which can remove a channel in any state and will not perform further actions on the channel. This is unsafe for channel that our side has signed the funding tx. When LND nodes abort the funding workflow, they will notify the peer that result. If the peer is not online, the notification is delivered when the peer occurs online next time.
