Caveat or Notice of Claim on a title certifications cover these scenarios:
- A withdrawal of Caveat or Notice of Claim is in a prior pending dealing or the same dealing.
- The instrument deals with an interest or estate not affected by the Caveat or Notice of Claim.
- The instrument is permitted under an exception in the Caveat or Notice of Claim.
- The instrument is a Transfer by Power of Sale which would lapse the Caveat.
When there are multiple Caveats or Notices of Claim in a dealing you must select a single special certification for each Caveat or Notice of Claim.
