A. After fifteen years from the date an instrument affecting title to real estate is recorded, no action shall be brought for recovery of the real estate because: (1) the instrument was not signed by the proper officer of a corporation; (2) the record does not show any authorization for the instrument by the board of directors or stockholders, or both, of a corporation; (3) the instrument was executed by a corporation: (a) that had been dissolved; (b) whose articles of incorporation had expired; (c) whose certificate of incorporation had been cancelled or revoked; or (d) whose certificate of authority to transact business in this state had been revoked or withdrawn; (4) the executor, administrator, guardian, assignee, receiver, master, agent or trustee or other agency making the instrument signed or acknowledged it individually rather than in his representative or official capacity; (5) the instrument was executed by a trustee without record of judicial or other determination of his authority or of the verity of the facts recited in the instrument; (6) the officer, who took the acknowledgment of the instrument and who had an official seal, did not affix his seal or show the date of the expiration of his commission on the certificate of acknowledgment; or (7) the wording of the consideration in the instrument may or might create an implied lien, other than an express vendor's lien, in favor of the grantor.

This section does not apply to: (1) forged instruments; or (2) instruments given by any community land grant corporation, as defined by law; or (3) actions that were pending or that were determined prior to July 1, 1971.
