Beginning November 1, 1984, all individuals, firms, corporations, or other entities engaging in the business of
abstracting, shall have available for use or commence compilation of an abstract plant and thereafter shall maintain in a current condition said plant. Failure to do so shall render its certificates of authority subject to revocation. An abstract plant shall be deemed in a current condition if it reflects all documents or other matters that are filed in said county except those filed within the preceding fifteen
(15)days. Holders of a certificate of authority issued pursuant to law who were engaged in the business of abstracting on November 1, 1984, shall not be required to construct or maintain an abstract plant of documents filed or recorded prior to November 1, 1984. If any such holder allows said certificate of authority to lapse after November 1, 1984, he shall be required to apply for a new certificate of authority before resuming the business of abstracting.
