Complaint to Foreclose of Tax Sale Certificate FILED April 14, 2010 Honig & Greenberg, L.L.C., Attorneys for Plaintiff This is a foreclosure proceeding and the intention of this complaint is to make the Plaintiff the owner of the real property described herein. The reason this complaint is filed is because there are unpaid municipal liens such as taxes, water, sewer, or otherwise, concerning the property. This complaint seeks to terminate, eliminate, and end all of the rights which any of the Defendants have in or to the property. If final judgment is entered in this foreclosure, the Plaintiff will seek possession of the property, which means that current occupants or tenants may be evicted or removed from the property. The plaintiff is the holder of the Tax Sale Certificate(s) which affect the property, and the details of these certificate(s) is/are set forth later in this complaint. The required time period(s) have elapsed since the tax sale(s) was held and redemption, also known as repayment, has not taken place. There is due on the certificate(s) the amount of the tax sale, together with subsequent liens, permitted charges, and interest as allowed by law. All municipal liens against the property have been paid to the time of the filing of this complaint and/or Plaintiff is ready and willing to pay all municipal liens against the property up to and including the filing of this complaint. 1
Any claim or interest which any of the Defendants named in this complaint may have in the property is junior and subject to Plaintiff's tax sale certificate(s). Any Defendant who is not the owner of the property his/her heirs, the holder of a mortgage or prior tax sale certificate, or occupant having a lawful right in the property, is specifically alleged not to have the right to redeem the property from tax sale, and Plaintiff seeks judgment determining same. If any Defendant has the lawful right to redeem, they must do so in accordance with Tax Sale Law N.J.S. 54:1 et seq. During the course of this action, Plaintiff may pay additional municipal liens that have accrued on said lands after the tax sale(s), in which case Plaintiff will be entitled to collect the amount(s) paid plus interest thereon at the rate(s) permitted by law and will become part of the amount required to redeem the property from tax sale. Upon the entry of judgment, the plaintiff will be entitled to possession of the property and demands judgment for such possession. If necessary, Plaintiff will apply for a Writ of Possession which will direct the County Sheriff to evict or remove the occupants of the property. At a sale(s) of lands for unpaid municipal liens held by the tax collector of the municipality, the property was sold, in fee simple and subject to redemption and a tax sale certificate(s) was issued setting for the details of that sale(s). After the said sale(s), the tax collector made, executed and delivered to the purchaser a tax sale certificate(s), which certificate was duly recorded in the Office of the Clerk/Register in the County where the property is located. The details of the tax sale(s), the real property, and the tax sale certificate(s), as well as the purchaser of the certificate(s) and current holder by assignment, if applicable, are set forth on a Schedule attached to this complaint and which is incorporated here as if repeated at length. 2
