penalties, fees, and costs for each person who has one of the
delinquent taxpayer accounts, and the Internet site shall contain a
special page for those persons who have the one hundred (100)
largest delinquent taxpayer accounts. Except as otherwise provided
in this subsection, the Tax Commission shall update the Internet
site on a quarterly basis. The Tax Commission shall not post on the
Internet the name or related information of any person who has
entered into a pay plan agreement with the Tax Commission and is in
compliance with that agreement, or the name or related information
of any person who is protected by a stay that is in effect under the
Federal Bankruptcy Code. The Internet posting shall be updated each
business day to comply with these prohibitions.
B. At least ninety (90) days before the disclosure of the name
of a delinquent taxpayer prescribed in subsection A of this section,
the Tax Commission shall mail a written notice to the delinquent
taxpayer at the taxpayer’s last known address informing the taxpayer
that the failure to cure the tax delinquency could result in the
taxpayer's name being included in a list of delinquent taxpayers
that is published on the Internet on the website maintained pursuant
to this section. If the delinquent tax has not been paid ninety
(90) days after the notice was mailed, and the taxpayer has not,
since the mailing of the notice, either entered into a written
agreement with the Tax Commission for payment of the delinquency or
corrected a default in an existing agreement to the satisfaction of
the Tax Commission, the Tax Commission may disclose the taxpayer

disclosure of taxpayer information and no liability whatsoever,
civil or criminal, shall attach to any member of the Tax Commission
or any employee thereof for any error or omission in the disclosure
of such information.
