A few months back after reading one of these type of stories I decided to play devil's advocate and find out what MY county required for notification.

Let me tell you something: It would serve everyone here in their best interest with property rights to learn the lien process in their county.

Some of you may have no idea. Mine is below (redacted for the sake of public comment):

Notice of lien may be issued by the Tax Administrator or his or her deputy whenever the operator is in default in the payment of said tax, interest and penalty and shall be recorded with XXXXXX County and a copy sent to the delinquent operator. The personal property subject to such lien seized by any deputy or employee of the Tax Administrator may be sold by the Department seizing the same at public auction after 10 days notice which shall mean one publication in a newspaper of general circulation published within the County.

That's ALL that the Code says about property tax lien notifications in MY county.

So, y'all tell me...without knowing the code in the subject County, let alone your own County, is it fair to be judgmental against these folks???
