 9        (a)  Property  sold  under this Code may be redeemed only
10    by those persons having a right of redemption as  defined  in
11    this Section and only in accordance with this Code.
12        A  right to redeem property from any sale under this Code
13    shall exist  in  any  owner  or  person  interested  in  that
14    property,   other  than  an  undisclosed  beneficiary  of  an
15    Illinois land trust, whether  or  not  the  interest  in  the
16    property  sold is recorded or filed.  Any redemption shall be
17    presumed to have been made by or on behalf of the owners  and
18    persons  interested  in  the  property and shall inure to the
19    benefit of the persons having the legal or equitable title to
20    the property redeemed, subject to the  right  of  the  person
21    making  the  redemption  to  be  reimbursed  by  the  persons
22    benefited.   No redemption shall be held invalid by reason of
23    the failure of the person redeeming to have recorded or filed
24    the document evidencing an interest in the property prior  to
25    redemption,  other  than  an  undisclosed  beneficiary  of an
26    Illinois land trust.

 1    existing law and not as a new enactment.
