TCA § 66-14-102 — Notice to persons interested

The artisan shall give a written notice to the person for whose account the goods were repaired, and to any other person known to the artisan who claims an interest in the goods. This notice shall be given by delivery in person, or by registered mail addressed to the last known place of business or abode of the person to be notified. Artisans, other than entities licensed and regulated pursuant to title 55, chapter 17, shall make reasonable inquiry to identify parties claiming an interest in the goods and shall give written notice to such parties as provided in subsection (a). In the event the goods are motor vehicles or other goods requiring certificates of title pursuant to title 55, “reasonable inquiry” as required by subsection (b) shall be satisfied by an inquiry of the title and registration division of the department of revenue or a county clerk as agent for the division to determine the interest of all title owners and all lienholders.
