I suppose technically the answer is "no." But realistically if you, as a property owner, had a warranty deed created, and filed it with the County in ND there may or may not be a problem, because if the deed was created correctly and in compliance with ND law no problem would arise. But if the deed was not ND law compliant, the Deed maybe invalid and the Attorney could be disciplined if the Attorney knew the deed was to be used in ND.
