Casaday v. Clearfield County Tax Claim Bureau

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• holding that a property owner must have actual notice “in sufficient time for her to react to prevent the sale or protect her interests”
• find-ing that Tax Claim Bureaus failure to indicate the correct owners name on the otherwise properly executed, posting and publication notices, did not invalidate the upset sale because there was no dispute that the property owner had actual notice
• posting contained name of prior owner, but current owner had actual knowledge of sale
• advertisement and posting listed prior owner instead of present owner as a result of recent transfer of ownership interest
• tax bureau’s failure to put correct name on posted notice, listing predecessor owner instead of current owner, excused because current owner had actual knowledge of sale
• where there is sufficient evidence of record to establish that the taxpayer had actual knowledge of the sale, the lack of formal adherence to the notice requirements of the Tax Sale Law did not invalidate the sale or compromise the taxpayer’s due process rights
