Never received his tax bill? Don't most of us know approx period our property tax bills come out? I certainly know when the deadline is before interest/late fees begin to accumlate. Wouldn't the average taxpayer inquire of the tax office if he had not received his bill?
I certainly would not want such a careless lawyer to represent me - much less be my president.
I have absolutely no clue when our property tax bills come out, or when they are due. The mortgage company takes care of that out of our escrow. I've never even SEEN a separate property tax bill. When and if we pay off the house, we'll deal with the property tax bill ourselves, but we never have yet.
