The Firm carefully researches the title of property in order to identify all parties who have an ownership interest or lien on the delinquent property. The Firm examines deeds, deeds of trust and probate records to determine who has interest in the property. All parties who have been determined to have an interest in the property are sent a final series of notices. Lienholder Notices are sent to financial institutions and individuals who have a lien on property on which there are delinquent taxes. The lienholders are informed that the Firm is preparing to file a delinquent tax suit that will extinguish their interest in the property if the taxes are not paid. Foreclosure Notices are sent to all parties who have an interest in the property informing them that a delinquent tax suit will be filed to foreclose their interest in the property in order to have it sold to satisfy the tax delinquency. Suit Notices are sent to property owners who have already been sued, and inform them of their hearing date in District Court, at which time judgment will be rendered against them and/or their property.

Delinquent tax suits filed by the Firm seek a personal judgment against the property owner and foreclosure and sale of the property to satisfy the tax delinquency. When all delinquent taxes, penalties and interest have been paid to the taxing jurisdiction, and all costs of court have been paid in the lawsuit, the lawsuit is dismissed against both the property owner and the property. Number Number Type of Suits of Properties Amount District Court Suits 9 11 $11,557 Dismissals 15 19 JUDGMENTS - When the property owner and all parties who have an interest in the property have been served with citation, the Firm notifies the property owner and all other defendants in the lawsuit of the date at which a hearing will be held in District Court to seek a judgment against the property owner and the property. The Firm recovers judgments against both the property owner and the property authorizing sale of the property in order to recover the delinquent taxes, penalties and interest owed. If the property owner pays the total amount of taxes, penalties, interest and costs after judgment has been rendered by the District Court, the judgment is released against both the property owner and the property.

The Firm publishes a Notice of Sale in the local newspaper and sends copies to the property owner and all other defen- dants in the delinquent tax suit, as required by law. In many instances, the property owner either pays the taxes prior to sale or enters into satisfactory arrangements for the payment of the taxes, in which case, the property is withdrawn from the Sheriffs Sale. Properties which are offered for sale are either conveyed to purchasers or, if no acceptable bid is made on the property, conveyed to the taxing units in lieu of payment of taxes. The Firm assists the Sheriff in conducting the sale and prepares the deeds to the purchasers, finalizes the sale papers and supervises the distribution of the sale proceeds to the taxing authorities in order to satisfy the tax delinquency.
