Changes the form the recorder must create to a registration form (currently, an affidavit). Provides that a recorder will only scan in a copy of the will and related documents (currently, the recorder would keep an original copy of the will and related documents). Provides that a non-testator depositor may be required to sign an affidavit affirming they have permission to register the will with the recorder. Provides that the registration forms, depositor affidavits, and wills scanned and indexes created pursuant to this Section are not public records (currently, they are public records). Provides for methods to remove a scanned will and related documents. Allows recorder office staff to refuse wills for scanning under certain circumstances. Limits liability of recorder office staff.
