Mont. Code § 72-16-1005
Current through the 2023 Regular Session
The tax imposed by 72-16-1002 is a lien on the property subject to the tax for a period of 10 years from the time of the generation-skipping transfer. The payment of the tax and any interest due releases the lien and discharges the liability for payment of the tax. If the lien is not perfected by recording, a transfer for value to a bona fide purchaser divests the property of the lien. If the lien is perfected by recording, the rights of the state under the lien have priority over all subsequent mortgages, purchasers, or judgment creditors. The department may release the lien prior to the payment of the tax if adequate security for payment of the tax is given to the department.
