Dear Mr. Driscoll: The Sixty-seventh Legislature amended article 6626, which deals with the recording of certain legal instruments, subsection (b). Acts 1981, 67th Leg., ch. 206, at 498. asked five questions concerning this subsection, which follows: A deed or other conveyance conveying an interest in real property, if executed after December 31, 1981, shall contain a mailing address of each grantee appearing on the document or in a separate instrument signed by a grantor or grantee and attached to the document. Failure to include an address of each grantee in the document or attached instrument does not affect the validity of the conveyance between the parties to the document. Any such deed or other conveyance which fails to include a mailing address of each grantee appearing in the document or attached instrument may only be filed for record with the county clerk of the county in which the real property is situated after payment of a penalty filing fee equal to the greater of (1) twice the statutory filing fee for the filing of such documents with the county clerk, or (2) the sum of $25. Upon acceptance by the county clerk of a deed or other conveyance for recordation and the payment of the filing fee as determined by the county clerk, it shall be conclusively presumed that such deed or other conveyance meets all filing fee requirements of this Subsection (b) of this Article 6626, prerequisite to the lawful filing of a deed or other conveyance.
