A sells a portion of property to B, and B promptly records the deed in the appropriate county office. If A tries to sell the same portion of property to C, then C has been given constructive notice of the prior sale because B promptly recorded the deed. So option a. is true.
Constructive notice is the legal fiction that someone actually received notice (being informed of a case that could affect their interest) whether or not they truly did receive this. If certain procedures have been followed, the law will consider a person to legally have received notice, even if in fact they did not. The notice under this doctrine arises by the presumption of law from the existence of facts and circumstances.
For example, a constructive notice can be perceived from a registered deed or a pending suit.
