RE:
New York City Recordings
As of June 1, 2008, the following rule will be in effect:
If, 10 days after recording, a recorded document is not picked up in person, the Registrar will:
- Return the document to the R & R on the document, IF the Registrar was provided with a self-addressed stamped envelope or an addressed overnight package.
- If no envelope or overnight package was provided, the Registrar will destroy the document.
It is recommended that a service that is regularly present at the Registrars' office be used to record your company's documents so that the documents can be retrieved.
If your company does its own recordings, someone from the office should go down as needed within the 10 day period so as to prevent the destruction of the document.
