§ 1‑118.  Effect on subsequent purchasers.

From the cross‑indexing of the notice of lis pendens only is the pendency of the action constructive notice to a purchaser or incumbrancer of the property affected thereby; and every person whose conveyance or incumbrance is subsequently executed or subsequently registered is a subsequent purchaser or incumbrancer, and is bound by all proceedings taken after the cross‑indexing of the notice to the same extent as if he were made a party to the action. For the purposes of this section an action is pending from the time of cross‑indexing the notice. (C.C.P., s. 90; Code, s. 229; Rev., s. 462; 1919, c. 31; C.S., s. 502.)
