An Act to further clear titles to real property affected by technical irregularities in recorded instruments
This bill (SD 91) automatically makes property documents legally valid if they contain minor technical errors (like missing signatures, incorrect acknowledgment forms, or improper execution) and no legal challenge occurs within 10 years of the document being recorded. It directly affects property owners, title insurers, and real estate transactions involving older documents with such flaws. The key provision is a 10-year "cure period": if no lawsuit is filed challenging the defect within that timeframe, the document and its recorded title become fully effective as if no error existed. This simplifies title clearance for historical property records without requiring court intervention for minor administrative issues.
