  • due process encompasses fundamental procedural fairness in tax sale cases as the purpose of the Law is not to strip the taxpayer of his or her property but to insure collection of taxes
  • tax sale laws “were never meant to punish taxpayers who omitted through oversight or error (from which the best of us are never exempt) to pay their taxes. Tax acts were rather meant to protect the local government against [willful], persistent, long standing delinquents”
