PURSUANT TO THE VILLAGE CODE, WRITTEN NOTICE BY MAIL AND PUBLICATION IS SUFFICIENT NOTICE OF A TAX LIEN AND SALE (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department, over a concurrence, determined defendant received adequate notice of the real property tax lien and sale:

The defendant argues that the Village should have been required to commence an in rem tax lien foreclosure proceeding. However, she concedes that, pursuant to L 1993, ch 602, § 6, Code of Village of Hempstead § 119-19, and former Real Property Tax Law § 1452 (repealed by L 1993, ch 602, § 4), “[o]pting out [of a law repealing certain sections of the Real Property Tax Law] allowed the Village of Hempstead and the tax lien purchaser to use the old law, which allowed for sale of the tax lien based on a written notice to the owner by mail and publication, and the issuance of a tax deed after service of a notice to redeem on the owner by mail.” The plaintiff correctly argues that the mailing and publication of the notice of tax lien sale and the mailing of the notice of redemption were sufficient to satisfy due process in this case … . Accordingly, the Supreme Court properly denied the defendant’s cross-motion to set aside the tax lien sale and to cancel the tax deed. BR Madison, LLC v Novas, 2025 NY Slip Op 00417, Second Dept 1-29-25

Practice Point: Here, pursuant to the Village Code, written notice by mail and publication of a tax lien and sale satisfied the property owner’s due process rights.
