Introduced Text

Rhode Island H7507 mandates that judgment creditors must send written notice of a recorded judgment lien within ten business days.

Rhode Island H7507 amends Chapter 9-21 of the General Laws to require judgment creditors to send written notice of a recorded judgment lien within ten business days. The notice must include the creditor's name and address, the judgment amount, the property description, and instructions on satisfying or contesting the lien. Failure to provide the notice does not invalidate the lien but may delay enforcement until notice is given. The clerk of the court must maintain records of judgment lien filings and notices sent. This act takes effect on January 1, 2027.
