Sec. 2. (a) To be effective and to be entitled to be recorded, the
notice referred to in section 1 of this chapter must contain the
following:
(1) An accurate and full description of all land affected by the
notice in specific terms. However, if the claim is founded upon
a recorded instrument, then the description in the notice may be
the same as that contained in the recorded instrument.
(2) The name and address of the claimant.
(3) The name and address of the person preparing the notice if
other than the claimant.
This notice must be filed for record in the office of the recorder of a
county where the land described is situated.
(b) A county recorder shall accept all notices presented to the
recorder that describe land located in the county that the recorder
serves. The recorder shall enter and record full copies of the notice
in the same way that deeds are recorded. Each recorder shall charge
the same fees for recording a notice as are charged for recording
deeds.
(c) Each recorder shall index the notices in the same manner that
deeds are indexed. Until the notice is recorded and correctly indexed,
a notice does not comply with section 1 of this chapter regarding
notice.
