SECTION 9300-9308
9300. Upon default in payment of any installment of a reassessment, or interest or penalties thereon, the lands securing the reassessments shall be sold in the same manner in which real property in the city is sold for the nonpayment of general taxes, and shall be subject to redemption within one year from date of sale in the same manner as such real property is redeemed from such delinquent sale, and upon failure of such redemption shall in like manner pass to the purchaser. 9301. In the event of default in the payment of any installment of any reassessment upon tax-deeded land or default in the payment of interest thereon, the land may be sold under this division as in the case of other lands. 9302. The city shall be the purchaser at any delinquent sale in like manner in which it becomes or may become the purchaser of property sold for nonpayment of the general property tax, and shall pay and transfer into the redemption fund the amount of the delinquent reassessment and of the delinquent interest thereon. 9303. If the municipal property tax is collected by county officials and sales for nonpayment of such taxes are made to the State, the State shall be the purchaser at any delinquency sale held pursuant to this division. However, the State shall hold the title acquired at such sale upon behalf of the city and shall account to the city for any money received upon redemption or from the sale of such property. The city, for the purposes of this division, shall be deemed the real purchaser. 9304. As to all lands of which any city is deemed the real purchaser under the provisions of this article, such city and all of the officials thereof shall have all of the rights, powers, duties, and obligations granted, authorized, or imposed by this division. 9305. If any succeeding installment of the reassessment on property purchased by a city at a delinquency sale or interest thereon is not paid in any future year, the property shall not be sold unless there has previously been a redemption from such sale or unless under the law it is then being sold for delinquent taxes. 9306. The city shall, unless a resale has been made by it, from time to time, when due pay and transfer into the redemption fund the amount of any future delinquent reassessment and interest pending redemption. No redemption shall be made until any such subsequent payments, with interest and penalties, shall also be paid. 9307. In the event of sale by the tax collector of any lot or parcel of land for nonpayment of taxes and of any installment of the reassessment thereon, or of the penalties, interest, or costs thereon, or for nonpayment of any installment, penalties, interest, or costs, then any certificate of sale or any deed issued is primary evidence of the regularity of all proceedings theretofore had, and shall be conclusive evidence of all things of which bonds issued upon the security thereof are conclusive evidence, and prima facie evidence of the regularity of all proceedings subsequent to the issuance of the bonds. 9308. A deed issued under this chapter conveys to the grantee the absolute title to the lands described therein, free of all encumbrances, except unpaid installments, interest, and penalties under the same proceeding and except taxes and public improvement assessments which by law are equal or prior to the reassessment on which sale is made.
