Current through the 2024 Regular Session
If the purchaser of land at tax sale shall not immediately pay the amount of his bid, the collector shall offer the land again; and if some person will not then bid the amount of taxes and costs, it shall be struck off to the state, as in other cases; but the first purchaser shall be liable for the amount of his bid, to be collected by suit by tax collector in the name of the state. On the same being collected, the tax collector shall notify the chancery clerk of the county, and the clerk shall strike the said lands from the records of land sold to the state, and shall enter said land on the list of lands sold to individuals to be subsequently dealt with as other lands sold to individuals.
