who furnishes labor, services, or materials for the
improvement of lands and who does not have privity of
contract with the contractor must, in addition to meeting

who, after proper written request, is not timely given a copy
of the Notice of Commencement. Provides for the manner in
which the request for the copy and the giving of the copy are
made. Renders all new notice requirements inapplicable if a
Notice of Commencement is not filed. Exempts laborers from
