In Re Collier · 2007 1 citation

Collier correctly asserts that Minnesota’s Torrens Act places great emphasis on the acts of filing and registration. The Torrens Act provides that “[ejvery conveyance, lien, attachment, order, decree, or judgment, or other instrument or proceeding, which would affect the title to unregistered land under existing laws, if recorded * * * shall, in like manner, affect the title to registered land if filed and registered.” Minn. Stat. § 508.48 (emphasis added). *805 “All interests in registered land, less than an estate in fee simple, shall be registered by filing with the registrar * * Minn. Stat. § 508.49 (2004) (emphasis added). When conveying, mortgaging, leasing, or otherwise dealing with registered land, “[t]he act of registration shall be the operative act to convey or affect the land.” Minn. Stat. § 508.47, subd. 1 (2004). Minnesota Statutes § 508.54, which specifically addresses mortgages, requires that mortgage interests in Torrens property “be registered and take effect upon the title only from the time of registration.”
