Description
On February 25, 1981, in conformity with NMSA 1978, Section 48-8-2(A) (Repl. Pamp.1987), Southwest filed its notice of lien with the clerk of the court. On March 2, 1981, a copy of Southwests notice was received at Safecos local office in Albuquerque. Safecos home office is located in Seattle, Washington, but Southwest did not mail a copy of the notice to the home office, as called for by Subsection (C) of Section 48-8-2. On October 31, 1981, Safecos adjuster, Jack Owens (Owens), who had handled Days claim, died. On April 2, 1982, Safeco settled Days claim against Graybill for the policy limits, $15,000. On June 22, 1982, Safeco representatives found in Owens files a copy of the notice which Southwest had sent to Safeco in March, 1981. Southwest was unable to collect from Day for the charges which he had incurred, and demanded payment from Safeco. When Safeco refused, the present lawsuit ensued.
