N.Y. Real Property Law § 417: Judgments, decrees, attachments and other liens to be noted on certificate

§ 417. Judgments, decrees, attachments and other liens to be noted on

certificate. No judgment, decree, attachment, execution, mechanic's

lien, or other lien or charge, which may affect or be a lien or charge

upon real property in this state, shall be or become a lien or charge on

real property, or any right or interest therein, the title to which has

been registered, unless a transcript, or certified copy, or other duly

made or certified document, which is by law proper evidence in a court

of record, of such judgment, decree, attachment, mechanic's lien, or

other lien or charge, shall be duly filed with the registrar, and a

proper memorial thereof made by him upon the certificate of title in the

title book. Such transcript, or certified copy, or other duly made or

certified document so filed shall have plainly written or stamped

thereon the number of the certificate of registration of the title to

the property to be affected and bound thereby by virtue of such memorial

on such certificate, and it shall be the duty of the registrar to make

such memorial immediately on receipt of the same. A discharge,

cancellation, or modification of any judgment, decree, attachment,

mechanic's lien, or other lien or charge, so noted on the certificate,

shall not affect or be binding upon the registered property, right, or

interest, unless on like evidence a memorial thereof shall be made by

the registrar on such certificate.
