The claimant must provide written notice of such claim to the owner. Id. The notice may be served by any person in the same manner that original notices are required to be served, such as personal service or certified mail. Id.

The forms were very easy to use. However, the Mercer County cover page is an older version. You can find the recent version on the county website.

status was canceled. said i needed to record directly. would be 5 stars if it worked.

Sorry for the inconvenience Roger. Unfortunately, not all jurisdictions in the country have progressed to the point of being able to accept all document types for e-recording.
