Very sorry for your issue with the Tax Commissioner's Office. There are two things that could have happened here; one is you can have them go back to that year and pull up the transaction (it probably was never entered by the teller) because all transactions are kept on a Mainframe for 10 years, the other, the teller could have pocketed your money (especialy if you paid in cash or money order. This has been a problem in a lot of the offices! If you have the cash or a way to get it, the property will be sold at a public auction in front of the court house for the price of the taxes, plus. Watch your local paper for the above. IF I TRUELY PAID IT, I WOULD GO TO THE COUNTY/CITY COMMISSION WITH THE COMPLAINT. Since this an elected position, you have rights. Good luck!
