Bill Summary

Relative to private construction contract liens. The Judiciary.

AI Summary

This bill amends the existing Massachusetts law regarding private construction contracts and liens. It allows a lien that is dissolved to enable the registration or recording of a first mortgage to be re-filed or re-recorded within 7 days, and specifies that such a lien shall also apply to any retainage withheld from the lien claimant. The bill also makes a minor change to the number of days certain parties have to respond to requests for information related to construction contracts.
