The Tax Sale
As required by Mississippi Code Sections 27-41-49 to 27-41-89 (see the Ms. Code online at www.sos.ms.gov ) the Tax Collectors of the 82 counties and those municipalities that collect their own taxes must "sell" all land on which the taxes are not paid on either the first Monday in April or the last Monday in August.
