If any parcel does not receive a sufficient bid or is not otherwise disposed of according to law, it may be offered for sale, under the same conditions of the first sale and at the same time of day and at the same place, on the 10th day of January, 2020, for an amount that equals at least the total amount of the judgment, including all taxes, assessments, charges, penalties, interest and costs payable subsequent to the delivery to the prosecuting attorney of the master list of delinquent tracts and prior to the transfer of the deed of the property to the purchaser following confirmation of sale.

PUBLIC NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN THAT ALL SUCH REAL PROPERTY TO BE SOLD AT PUBLIC AUCTION MAY BE SUBJECT TO A FEDERAL TAX LIEN THAT MAY NOT BE EXTINGUISHED BY THE SALE, AND PURCHASERS OF ANY SUCH REAL PROPERTY ARE URGED TO SEARCH THE FEDERAL TAX LIEN INDEX THAT IS KEPT BY THE COUNTY RECORDER TO DETERMINE IF NOTICE OF A FEDERAL TAX LIEN HAS BEEN FILED WITH RESPECT TO ANY SUCH PROPERTY.

Terms of sale: The amount of the judgment shall be payable upon being the successful bidder and the balance shall be due within thirty (30) days or upon receipt of the sheriff’s deed, whichever may occur first. A Sheriff’s fee in the amount of One and One-half (1.5%) percent of the successful bid and a deed preparation fee of $50 will be added to the successful bid.

Real Estate Taxes have not been prorated as of the date of sale. As real estate taxes are paid in arrears, purchaser is responsible for any accrued real estate taxes that have not yet become due and payable as of the date of sale.

Neither the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office, nor the Monroe County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office, shall be responsible for the condition of the buildings or property and therefore there are no guarantees.

   That person is a parent who has failed without justifiable cause to provide for the maintenance and support of the minor as required by law or judicial decree for a period of at least one year immediately preceding the filing of the adoption petition or the placement of the minor in the home of the petitioner.

A FINAL DECREE OF ADOPTION, IF GRANTED, WILL RELIEVE YOU OF ALL PARENTAL RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO CONTACT THE MINOR, AND, EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO A SPOUSE OF THE ADOPTION PETITIONER AND RELATIVES OF THAT SPOUSE, TERMINATE ALL LEGAL RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN THE MINOR AND YOU AND THE MINOR’S OTHER RELATIVES, SO THAT THE MINOR THEREAFTER IS A STRANGER TO YOU AND THE MINOR’S FORMER RELATIVES FOR ALL PURPOSES. IF YOU WISH TO CONTEST THE ADOPTION, YOU MUST FILE AN OBJECTION TO THE PETITION WITHIN FOURTEEN DAYS AFTER PROOF OF SERVICE OF NOTICE OF THE FILING OF THE PETITION AND OF THE TIME AND PLACE OF HEARING IS GIVEN TO YOU. IF YOU WISH TO CONTEST THE ADOPTION, YOU MUST ALSO APPEAR AT THE HEARING. A FINAL DECREE OF ADOPTION MAY BE ENTERED IF YOU FAIL TO FILE AN OBJECTION TO THE ADOPTION PETITION OR APPEAR AT THE HEARING.
