Summary
A deed, lease, contract, or other paper signed by or for the Commission that transfers ownership or another property right is treated as final proof that the Commission followed this chapter and its rules about the title or interest. That protection covers any honest buyer or transferee who paid for it and did not know of any failure to comply, and it also protects people who later own the property.
