Enrolled Bill Summary

Senate Bill 2128	Senate Author:  Creighton
Effective:  9-1-19	House Sponsor:  Parker

            Senate Bill 2128 amends the Local Government Code and Property Code to establish a process for county clerks to record a paper or tangible copy of an electronic record that is otherwise eligible under state law to be recorded in the real property records, provided the copy meets certain signature requirements and has been declared as true and correct by a notary public or other applicable officer. The bill establishes a standard form for that declaration and requires the property record index entry for a paper document so recorded to contain the names of the grantors and grantees.
