January 1, 1997, the registrar shall refuse to accept for registration any
instrument that is a voluntary instrument. Instead of accepting a
voluntary instrument for registration, the registrar shall, upon payment of
the statutory recording fee, place of record with the recorder each current
certificate of title or a registrar's certification of condition of title
to all lands affected by that voluntary instrument. Before placing the
certificate or certification of record, the registrar shall memorialize on
the certificate or certification any instruments, documents, or papers that
have been filed with the registrar and that have not yet been memorialized.
