Western Australian Consolidated Acts Western Australian Consolidated Acts Upon registering a
certificate of title the Registrar shall retain in his custody and possession
all grants and instruments evidencing the title of the person registered and
shall endorse upon the last of them if there be more than one a memorandum
that the land included in the certificate has been brought under this Act and
shall sign such memorandum. Provided always that if any of such grants or
instruments relate to any property other than the land included in such
certificate the Registrar shall return such grant or instrument to the person
from whom he received the same. No person shall be entitled to an inspection
of any of such instruments except upon the written order of the person who
originally deposited the same or of some person claiming through or under him
or upon the order of a judge or of the Commissioner. No action or suit at law
or in equity shall be brought or maintained upon any covenant or agreement for
the production of the documents which shall be so retained or upon any
agreement to give or enter into a covenant for the production thereof; and if
any such action or suit shall be commenced it shall be a sufficient answer
thereto that such documents have been retained under this Act.
