Property Should Not Have Been Restored to Petitioner—Time for Redemption Had Passed—Default Judgment in Tax Foreclosure Action Extinguished Petitioner’s Rights in the Property

The Fourth Department determined Supreme Court should not have restored title to property to the petitioner after the a default judgment had been entered in a tax foreclosure action.  The time for redemption had passed and had not been extended:

The Treasurer’s posting of the tax enforcement notification at petitioner’s residence on April 25, 2012 extended the right of redemption until May 25, 2012 (see RPTL 1125 [1] [b] [iii]). Only a local law could extend the cut-off date for redemption (see RPTL 1111 [2]) and, thus, contrary to petitioner’s contention, the published notice of the tax auction could not extend that date of redemption. Where a valid tax lien exists, and the taxing authority followed all proper procedures in foreclosing the lien, the taxpayer’s property interests are “lawfully extinguished as of the expiration of the[ ] right to redemption and the entry of the judgment of foreclosure” … . Thus, all of petitioner’s right, title and interest in the parcels, in her individual and representative capacities, was extinguished when the default judgment was entered in the tax foreclosure action on June 18, 2012 (see RPTL 1123 [8]).  Matter of Johnstone v Treasurer of Wayne County, 2014 NY Slip Op 04590, 4th Dept 6-20-14
