Description
CROCKETT, Justice: Plaintiff sues asserting fee ownership of certain lots in the northeast of Salt Lake City as against the defendants, who claim under a county auditor's deed issued pursuant to a May sale based on failure to pay taxes. Salt Lake County was named as a party defendant, and filed a disclaimer. It was shown that the May sale was not conducted by the county auditor (or his deputy) 1 as required by statute, 2 but by Mr. Wendell Hibler, an employee in that office. In accordance with the holding of this court in a case of similar facts, Page v. McAfee, 3 the trial court ruled that the defendants had not acquired a valid title; and gave judgment for the plaintiff, conditioned upon its reimbursing the defendants for the amount of taxes, penalties and interest thereon. Defendants appeal.
