Maya v. County of Erie Tax Claim Bureau

Commonwealth Court of Pennsylvania

Decided January 10, 2013PublishedCited by 12 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

OPINION BY

Judge LEAVITT.

The County of Erie Tax Claim Bureau (Tax Claim Bureau) appeals an order of the Court of Common Pleas of Erie County (trial court) granting the petition of Lynn Fischer Maya to set aside a tax sale of property she owned. The Tax Claim Bureau contends that the trial court erred because it gave Maya all the notice of the sale of her property to which she was entitled. Concluding that the Tax Claim Bureau did not make a reasonable effort to give Maya notice of the impending sale after its certified mailing to Maya was returned as unclaimed, we affirm the trial court.
