Mississippi Legislation

SB 2073 amends Section 93-19-13 of the Mississippi Code and other statutes to lower the age at which persons can enter into binding contracts affecting real property from twenty-one years to eighteen years of age.

HB 1170 amends Section 63-21-16 to allow the Department of Revenue to electronically note liens and releases of liens on a certificate of title for manufactured housing rather than noting the liens and releases on the face of the certificate of title.

These statutes became effective on July 1, 2023.
