I just got a call from the "owner" associated with this project and it is incorrect. JKC owns a daycare stand alone building. She said that there is a vacant lot next to her but that the address removes the "Crossing" in the address, this could possibly be the issue? I know that the GC and Sub are correct. What can be done to find the correct owner and send them the notice? Thank you for your help!...Read More

I represent a steel supplier for a project in south Georgia. This is a big project with many subs, my client being one of them. There is a major dispute with the GC over alleged chargebacks and unpaid invoices. We are still within the 90 day time frame to file liens on the property. However, a Notice to Contractor was not sent by my client. A NOC was provided late but it is not signed by the clerk of court. I am verifying whether or not it was ever filed.
One point:
1. We do have privity of contract, a direct contract with the GC. It appears that although best practice would have been to send a NTC, it is not required by Georgia law because of the existence of the contract that we have with the GC.
Question: Am I correct in believing that we can go ahead and file the liens in absence of a NTC because we do have privity, directly contracted with, the GC?
