5. The notice of the impending tax lien notice and the notice of the impending tax

deed were sent to the address on file for Lorette and were signed for by Norman Collins.

Petition at 110. The Town was not aware she was deceased at the time the notices were sent.

Prior taxes had been paid on the Property before 2015 and after her death. Petition at 19.

6. On August 27, 2019, the Court ordered service upon Patrick Collins and Norman

8. The Town published notice of the Petition in the Union Leader twice in

with the Court.

for Final Judgment. The Court further finds that the only known heirs were provided in-hand
