Copy as parenthetical citation

(b) In counties where, under certain circumstances and pursuant to law, deeds or other instruments are recordable among miscellaneous instruments, or indexed in the index of such instruments, each of the papers shall be similarly recorded or indexed. In other counties or cases, it shall be recorded or indexed as a deed.

(c) Where the paper so recorded does not reveal the name of the trustee in bankruptcy, the recording officer shall substitute, for the name of the grantee in the index or indices in his office where the name of the grantee in a deed is required to be entered, the words "Trustee in bankruptcy"; but any irregularity or failure of the recording officer in compliance with this paragraph shall not invalidate the record thereof.

(d) The recording of the paper and the certification thereof shall have the same effect as constructive notice as if it were a conveyance to a named grantee, duly acknowledged or proved and recorded.

(e) The petition, decree or order referred to in subdivision 1 of this section may be one either heretofore or hereafter filed or made pursuant to any law of the United States relating to bankruptcy.
