Senichka v. Lowe
Illinois Supreme Court
Appeal from the Circuit Court of Will county; the Hon. Josiah MoRoberts, Judge, presiding. This was an action of ejectment, by the appellant against the appellee, for the recovery of two lots in the city of Joliet, in Will county. The cause was tried by the court without a jury. The plaintiff claimed title under a sale of the lots in 1866 for the taxes of 1865. The court found for the defendant.
1Opinion of the CourtJustice Scholfield
The only evidence of the publication of the notice by the collector that he would apply for judgment for the delinquent taxes against the property in controversy, is what purports to be the certificate of the publisher of the paper, printed at the conclusion of the list of delinquent property, and as a continuation of the same advertisement. This appears only in the same number of the paper containing the advertisement, and there is no certificate made by the publisher since that publication was made. This was clearly insufficient to give the court jurisdiction in the case.
