10-24-9. Right of part owner to make partial redemption from real property sale--Acceptance by certificate holder or decision required for completion of redemption. Any person claiming a part of or an undivided interest in any real property sold for taxes, if the part or undivided interest was acquired before the tax sale from which redemption is sought, may redeem the part or undivided interest at any time before a tax deed has been issued on the property by paying the just proportion of the total amount required for redemption. The just proportion is the proportion that the then existing value of the part or interest for which redemption is sought bears to the then existing value of the whole, as computed by the county treasurer at the time. If the tax sale certificate is held by a person other than the county, the redemption is not complete until the certificate holder accepts the portion so determined by the county treasurer or until the matter is decided as provided in §§ 10-24-12 to 10-24-15, inclusive.
