Michigan Supreme Court
Appeal from Muskegon; Russell, J. Petition by Alice A. Hall against M. E. Mann and George F. Brown to set aside a tax sale. From a decree dismissing the petition, petitioner appeals.
1Opinion of the CourtMoore, J.
This is an application for a rehearing, with leave to appear and answer the petition of the auditor general in a tax proceeding. The petition claims the proceedings were void:
First. Because the owner was a nonresident of the State, who had sold the land upon a contract, to a purchaser who was to pay the taxes; that the purchaser was also a nonresident, who sent the money to pay the taxes to his brother, who was a resident, but who failed to pay the taxes.
Second. Because the owner had no notice of the tax proceedings until after the deed had been issued by the State to the defendants.
