Senate Bill No. 2072 amends existing law regarding the notice of fraudulent conveyance, specifically updating the statutory reference for the definition of title theft and prohibiting the charging of fees for certain filings. The bill allows victims of title theft to file a notice of fraudulent conveyance, which can be done by the victim or a representative if the victim is unable to do so. The notice must include a full description of the affected real property and will serve as constructive notice of the alleged fraudulent conveyance. Additionally, the county clerk is required to send a copy of the notice to the district attorney and the local law enforcement agency for further investigation.

The bill also stipulates that no fees shall be charged by the county clerk or court clerk for filing an order to quiet title to restore ownership to the rightful property owner due to a fraudulent conveyance. Furthermore, it grants the county clerk the authority to refuse to file a notice if it is believed to be sham legal process or slander of title. If a notice is refused, the aggrieved party has the option to petition the district court for a writ of mandamus to compel the filing. The act is set to take effect on November 1, 2026.
