§ 35-24-11 — Contents and filing of statement of lien

1. Every person claiming a lien under this chapter shall file with the recorder of the
county in which the leasehold or pipeline, or some part thereof, is situated, a statement
verified by affidavit setting forth the amount claimed and the items thereof, the dates
on which labor was performed or material or services furnished, the name of the owner
of the leasehold or pipeline, if known, the name of the claimant and the claimant's
mailing address, a description of the leasehold or pipeline, and if the claimant is a
claimant under section 35-24-04, the name of the person for whom the labor was
immediately performed or the material or services were immediately furnished.
2. The statement of the lien must contain the following statement in at least sixteen-point
typeface unless the owner of the freehold estate also is the owner of the leasehold for
oil or gas purposes or the pipeline for which the labor, materials, or services were
supplied:
The lien in this chapter attaches only to the leasehold for oil or gas purposes or
any pipeline for which labor, materials, or services were supplied. This lien does
not attach to or encumber the real property of a freehold estate.
Failure to include the statement mentioned in this subsection in the statement of the
lien does not invalidate a lien on the leasehold or pipeline.
3. The statement of lien must be filed within six months after the date on which the
claimant's labor was last performed or material or services were last furnished under a
single contract as provided for in section 35-24-10.
