You have a tab after the "\l'6i'", which counts as part of the
line. Remove it, and the error disappears.

\u\l'6i'\" Horizontal line @ 6 inches
.tl '''\u\s-24927 33\*[SUP]rd\*[SUPX] Street, Megalopolis, KS 67999\s0'
.sp 3
You then need to put a ".br" after the line, to terminate it,
otherwise it's retained as a partially filled line until the
next break (from the ".sp 3"), and therefore is only output
after the 3-part title.

Alternatively, do the right-adjusting with ".rj" instead of ".tl":
