Full Question:
What kind of form can be placed on record to stipulate title to a piece of
property? Someone (who had no legal title to this property) issued a Quit
Claim Deed to a church and I was told that if I did not contest the Quit
Claim deed, it would stand and the church would own the property. The
church has "refused" the gift, but declines to offer a similar Quit Claim
denouncing any ownership. The QCD from the individual to the church was
filed with the County Clerk and is on record.

Answer:
A quitclaim deed transfers only that interest in the real property which the
grantor actually has. If the grantor has no title to the property, his granting a
quitclaim deed to the church passes no property. Title to the property will
not be affected by his quitclaim deed.
