  1. Real Property Law
  2. Article 12. Registering Title to Real Property

§ 391. Final orders conclusive; to be entered and docketed as a

judgment. No final order or judgment of registration shall be made,

unless the court is satisfied that the title to be registered

accordingly is free from reasonable doubt. The final order entered upon

an application for registration is deemed to be a final judgment and may

be entered and docketed and enforced as a final judgment in an action.

Before the final order can be docketed, an enrollment must be filed

thereupon as the judgment roll in an action, as provided in section

three hundred and ninety-three of this chapter. The judgment and any

order made and entered in a proceeding under this act shall, except as

herein otherwise provided, be forever binding and conclusive upon the

state of New York and all persons in the world, whether mentioned and

served with the said notice specifically by name, or included in the

description, "all other persons, if any, having any right or interest

in, or liens upon, the property affected by this proceeding, or any part

thereof." It shall not be an exception to such conclusiveness that any

such person is an infant, mentally ill or is under any other disability

or is not yet in being.
