new TAX ruling
BY ATTORNEY GENERAL
PENALTIES ON DELINQUENT
TAXES CAN NOT BE COLLECT
Ed WITHOUT NOTICE.

r. E. Bowling, county attorney of
Garvin county submits the PROPOSE
tion to the attorney generals office
that no penalty on delinquent taxes
for the years 1910-11-12 can be col
lected where no notice was given 1t
is agreed by the attorney generals
office that this is the correct view.
Referring to the new law passed by
the legislature now in session, the
opinion Of the attorney general calls
attention to the per cent interest on
taxes now due, and the penalty. Under
the new law no notice is required. The
attorney general says:
THE opinion only applies where
the tax is delinquent and unpaid and
no sale has been attempted If sale
has been made and tax certificate or
deed issued, the right of the owner to
redeem or set aside the deed raises
other legal questions"
