: : The Torrence Act will register the land, create a Certificate of Title.

: : This may divest the owner of possesion.

: RCW 65.12.225 authorizes the withdrawal from the land registration program.
: The procedure is spelled out further in 65.12.225 and 65.12.235. Does anyone
: have further information regarding this process? It appears that after a
: Certificate of withdrawal has been recorded, the owners will be allowed to contract
: and convey, and DOE, JOHN, can perhaps then convey the interest to John Doe in
: fee simple, an indefeasable seizin and possesory right. Any comments appreciated.
