The Tax Division also provides legal representation to the County Treasurer, County Auditor, the Board of Revision and the Sheriff's Office on issues relating to tax and judicial sales. The Tax Division further represents various county officials' interests in collection proceedings in bankruptcy court, third party foreclosure actions as well as probate land sale actions.
