Whenever any attested account to obtain a mechanic's, material supplier's, or laborer's
lien is filed in the office of the county recorder by which a lien is sought to be
obtained upon any registered land, the county recorder shall forthwith make notation

of title to the land is registered, stating the name of the claimant, amount claimed,
volume and folium of the record where recorded, and the exact time when said memorial
was entered. No lien shall attach to said land until such notation is entered by the recorder. The recorder may, upon written application of the registered owner, cancel from any
