[QUOTE="Shadowrider, post: 4089522, member: 3099"] The county clerk is required to keep a record of all instruments filed. 99.9% of people have no idea that this is probably the most important governmental function of our society today. Their job is to be the "librarian of the records". In a lot of cases in other states the office is called "register of deeds" or something very close to that. Them being required to register a legally executed instrument is as it should be, the problem is enforcement. I almost can't fathom someone filing a false deed as there is ALWAYS a trail back to the person that filed it. I mean someone owns it right? If it's a falsified record they know right where to go to execute the arrest warrant. And if they don't know a little digging by a detective will find them. This title lock insurance isn't a complete scam I don't think, but it's very unnecessary, IMO. If you own real estate you should know exactly where your abract is or have a copy of it yourself in a safe place like a bank safe deposit box at an absolute minimum. Going to court to have the record corrected after someone stole your piece of property should be a slam dunk matter if there ever was one. [/QUOTE]
