Section 950. Satisfaction of undertaking of collecting officer


Latest version.
  • Upon the
      settlement of the account of taxes of a collecting officer in  any  city
      or town, the county treasurer shall, if requested, and if the collecting
      officer has fully paid over or duly accounted for all the taxes which he
      was  by  law  to  collect, give to such collecting officer or any of his
      sureties a written certificate of such  settlement,  duly  acknowledged.
      Upon the filing thereof in the office of the clerk where the undertaking
      is recorded, the clerk shall enter satisfaction of such undertaking. The
      filing  of  the satisfaction shall discharge the lien of the undertaking
      upon the real property of the collecting officer and his  sureties,  but
      in  no  way shall impair the liability of the collecting officer and his
      sureties upon  the  undertaking  for  a  failure  on  the  part  of  the
      collecting officer to pay over moneys collected by him.
