32-3-70. Electronic certificates of title--Liens--Paper title. Notwithstanding any other provision of this title, the department may provide for an electronic certificate of title. If the application for title or the title has a lien noted, no paper title may be issued to the owner of record or the lienholder. A paper title shall be issued under the following circumstances:
(1) The lien has been satisfied and the owner requests a title; or
(2) The owner is relocating to another state and the lienholder authorizes the issuance of a title with the lien noted.
A lien shall be noted or cancelled on-line if an electronic certificate of title exists and the lienholder has access to the electronic title file system pursuant to § 32-3-38.1. A lienholder is liable for noting or canceling a lien in error.
