(4) A certified copy of the decree shall be:
(i) Recorded in the office of the recorder of deeds of each county where real
estate included in the decree shall lie.
(ii) Indexed by the recorder in the grantor’s index under the name of the
decedent and in the grantee’s index under the name of each distributee.
(iii) Registered in the survey bureau or with the proper authorities empowered
to keep a register of real estate in the county.
Note
This section as amended provides an easier process than that set
forth in Act 171 of 2006, which amends § 3155 and concerns the
granting of letters testamentary to redevelopment authorities.
Comment
An adjoining property owner does not have standing under the
amendment to § 3546 because he or she could receive a windfall if
granted standing.
