Official statutory text

If any moneys are paid into court by the plaintiff in the course of an eminent domain proceeding, the plaintiff or its attorney shall certify the fact of the payment to the director of taxation or county finance director, as the case may be, and shall further certify the date when possession of the land on account of which the payment was made was acquired by the plaintiff, or in the event of entry of a final order of condemnation without previous possession of the land, shall certify the date of the final order of condemnation. A copy of the certificate shall be filed as part of the record in the case. In the event of a final determination granting the application of any party for the payment to the party of any of the moneys so paid into court, or if a final order of condemnation is entered, then immediately upon receipt of the certificate the appropriate director shall certify to the clerk of the court in which the eminent domain proceeding is pending the amount of state taxes set forth in title 14 or county real property taxes, penalties, and interest constituting a lien upon the land so coming into the possession of the plaintiff, or constituting a lien upon the land which was the subject of the final order of condemnation, as the case may be. In computing the amount of the lien the county director of finance shall cause the real property taxes due on the parcel of land or portion of a parcel of land so coming into the possession of the plaintiff or made the subject of the final order of condemnation, to be remitted for the balance of the taxation period or year from and after the date of possession or, in the event of entry of a final order of condemnation without previous possession by the plaintiff, from and after the date on which the final order of condemnation was entered, as the case may be. The county director of finance or other tax official may remit the taxes in the manner provided by this section upon the receipt of the certificate.
