may be filed in the office of the county clerk of any county where

the real property described in the judgment or decree is located.

proceeding, the court, case number, the date that the judgment or

decree was entered, a legal description of the real property located

in the county where the notice is to be filed without including the

description of real property located in any other county, and the

name and address of the party or parties holding title to such real

property as set forth in the judgment or decree.
