Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Property Tax Code. Provides that relief from an order for a tax deed may be had under certain provisions of the Code of Civil Procedure concerning motions after judgment in nonjury cases. Provides that notice of the expiration of the period of redemption must be served upon certain owners and parties interested in the property in the manner set forth under certain provisions of the Code of Civil Procedure (now, personal service). Requires the court to enter orders to place the tax-deed grantee's successor in interest in possession of the property and authorizes the court to grant other relief to maintain the successor in interest in possession. Provides that the notice of the expiration of the period of redemption may not be served more than 6 months (now, 5 months) before the expiration of the period of redemption. Provides that the changes concerning post-judgment motions and the changes concerning the possession by the tax-deed grantee's successor in interest must be construed as being declarative of existing law and not as a new enactment.

Adds reference to:
35 ILCS 200/21-260

In a Section concerning scavenger sales, provides that, at any time within 6 months (now, 5 months) prior to expiration of the period of redemption from a sale, the owner of a certificate of purchase may file a petition and may obtain a tax deed. Makes other changes.
