Indiana Code Title 31. Family Law and Juvenile Law § 31-25-4-30

Sec. 30. (a) The bureau shall, each month, prepare a list of each person against whom a child support obligation lien is held under IC 31-16-16-3 (or IC 31-2-11-9 before its repeal).  The list must identify each person liable for a lien by name, address, amount of lien, and either Social Security number or employer identification number.  The bureau shall certify a copy of the list to the bureau of motor vehicles.

(b) The bureau of motor vehicles shall, before issuing the title to a motor vehicle under IC 9-17, determine whether the purchaser's or assignee's name is on the most recent monthly lien list.  If the purchaser's or assignee's name is on the list, the bureau shall enter as a lien on the title the name of the state as the lienholder.  The state's lien on a title under this section is subordinate to a prior perfected security interest if the interest is defined and perfected under any of the following:

(c) A lien against the title under this section must be treated in the same manner as any other subordinate title lien.

(d) The bureau shall prescribe and furnish release forms for use by the bureau.  When the amount of the lien is paid, the bureau shall issue to the person against whom the lien was held a release stating that the amount represented by the lien has been paid.  The bureau may also issue a release to a person against whom the lien is held if the person has made arrangements, agreed to by the bureau, for the payment of the amount represented by the lien.

(e) The director of the bureau or the director's designee is the custodian of all titles having the state as the sole lienholder under this section.  Upon receiving a title from the bureau of motor vehicles under this section, the director shall notify the owner of the motor vehicle.

(f) The bureau shall reimburse the bureau of motor vehicles for all costs incurred by the bureau in implementing this section.
