Property recording acts hypo question wild deeds

Post by ryantw » Thu May 01, 2014 1:08 am

Hey everybody, i'm struggling with one hypo from property regarding recording acts. Heres the hypo:

"O to A (A does not record). A to B (B records). O to Z (Z has no actual notice of deed from O to A; Z records). B records deed from O to A"

Who wins under a:

1) Race statute
2) Notice statute
3) Race-notice statute

I don't know under the race statute whether its B because they were actually first, or Z because there wasn't a complete chain of title.

Why is B recording the deed from O to A?
