Hi Vikki! It is HB1018 and I was told by the cerk's office in Lamar county that they would stop cross-indexing on July 1st. However, I and a fellow abstractor talked to the clerk in Spalding county on Friday. She said their office would not stop. She told us that there is alot of talk among the clerks about this bill and some confusion. She also doesn't believe it is a requirement that cross-indexing in the books be stopped while some other counties believe that it is. In any case, she was going to thoroughly read it this past wknd. and will post it or something in the record room. I only got to read the bill once in Lamar and found it hard to interpret. It did say something about writing in the books. I wasn't allowed to make a copy of it there. As I go to the different counties, I will be asking each clerk's office about it. If you find out any more info, please let me know and I will do the same!
