RE:
Lis Pendens N.J.S.A. 2A:15-11
Dear Associates:
As part of the Fair Foreclosure Act effective December 4, 1995, the State Legislature amended the Notice of Lis Pendens statute to provide for an extended life to a lis pendens. The Act effectively extends a lis pendens from three (3) years to five (5) years.
Accordingly, after December 4, 1995, all lis pendens will have a life of five (5) years and our search period for these lis pendens must be extended accordingly.
