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,

(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

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.

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
