Title companies and other real estate watchers have started seeing a trickle of document filings at the Pulaski County Circuit Clerk’s Office.
An inexplicable computer system failure halted the normal recording of deeds, mortgages and other real estate documents around Jan. 9.
The latest recordings are a mixed bag of backlog and more current paperwork.
And yes, that means a bunch of filings that should’ve received a legal recording date in January are part of the February roster.
How and will this time lapse be corrected? Unknown for now.
Early last week, we were told that about 402 documents received by the circuit clerk in January have yet to be recorded.
But the conveyor belt filing of real estate documents is rolling again, a blend of old and new business.
