Act to amend record of conveyances in District of Columbia
Public No 15 lays out procedures for recording deeds and covenants in DC counties. It details two justices of the peace certification, private examinations for married women, and effective dates for recorded instruments. The act protects purchasers and creditors while clarifying priority for multiple deeds. It also covers recording of title bonds and governs deeds previously recorded. The measure is signed by Speaker Polk and Vice President Johnson, approved April 20, 1838.
