Rhode Island General Laws Title 28. Labor and Labor Relations § 28-40-14. Contributions as debt to state--Lien on real estate

(b) The notice of the tax lien filed shall: (1) be in writing; (2) contain the name and last known address of the lienee, and (3) state that the lienee is indebted to the state under this chapter. The notice need not describe the lienee's property, or specify the amount of contributions owed, or the period of time covered by the delinquency. When the notice is filed in a city or town by the director, it shall, unless sooner discharged or released, also apply to property in the city or town subsequently acquired by the lienee during a period of six (6) years from the date of filing and that filing need not be repeated for each successive delinquency of the lienee. The notice shall expire six (6) years from the date of filing unless renewed by again filing a similar notice on or before the expiration date. The director shall be obliged to discharge or release the notice of lien when the lienee is no longer delinquent in the payment of any contributions, interest, or penalties, whether incurred prior or subsequent to the date of filing of that notice, or upon request, following the expiration of the statutory lien period, as set forth in this section.

(c) For the filing of a notice of lien or discharge of a lien, the recorder of deeds or the city or town clerk shall be paid, out of any money appropriated for expenses of the director, a fee of four dollars ($4.00) for a completed entry.

(d) The authority granted in this section to the director to file a notice of lien shall not be held to repeal or amend in any other respect § 28-39-19.
