Alaska Property Owners Subject To Late Filing Penalty

vided for in the law. The first step in the foreclosure. action will be the compilation of the list of owners and a descrip- ton of their property on which the lien has attached. This will be sent to the Clerk ofthe Courts in each division as soon as it can be prepared after July 1st of this year for appropriate action.
 The Attorney General and the Land Commissioner urge those who have not paid the penalties forlate filing tocom- ply with the special notices sent them prior to July 1st. After that date it is quite pro- bable that they will face a more complex procedure if they desire to protect their ownership.
 Ownership statement should
Kodiak mirror., 1954-06-26

Since January 1. 1854 approximately 1900 property owners in Alaska have filed their statement of ownership under the Alaska Registration Act of 1852. The expiration of the filing period was Decem- Der 31, 1853 and filings made after that date for property owned in 1855 are subject to a late filing penalty of $500.
 The Territorial Department of Lands has sent penalty mo- tees to all owners on record of late filing and the Land Com- missioner estimates that approximately 50% of the number of penalties will be paid by June 30, 1854. The penalties that are not paid by that date will constitute a lien against the land which will be sahject to foreclosure as pro-

besfiled by the new owner for each transfer or purchase of property made during the cur rent year. There is no penalty, for filing this statment if it is made on or before Decmber 31. 1854. It is imp ortapt to show on the filing statement that it is for a 1854 transaction. En-
 trymen who receive U. s. Pat
 ents to their claims in 1854
 should file an ownership state ment. All filing should be
 made at the Recorders office
 of the precinct where the land
 is located.
 Due to lack of funds for ad- ministering the Registration
 Law, the owership statements that have been filed can not be indexed and a record com piled of all report areas at this time. The owner of private land for which owenship state ment has not been filed is, however, subject to the penal ty and lien for failure to file or for late fling. Late filing constitute a case record of the owner who is subject to the late filing penalty but before compiling the entire filing record. it will be imbossible to determine the description of property for which the owner has not filed as required by the act. All property for which filing has not been made or for which the owner has fail ed to pay the late filing pen alty is subject to the lien and foreclosure. This constitutes a cloud against the title. Title insurance and abstract com panies generally require this cloud to be removed before they will issue title insurance or compile a complete ab- stract.
