Redemption affidavit Alabama Jeff county
I purchased a tax certificate, the original owner attempted to redeem and sent me a form I had to sign I responded back certified mail with a date stating I agreed to redemption if done no later by a certain date. He failed to redeem in that time frame I then assigned the tax certificate over to someone else then a few weeks later That person assigned to someone else. He sent me a letter AGAIN stating that he wanted to redeem however I did not receive due to the fact I had nothing to do with the property any more. But I did respond to the one when the certificate was still recorded and assessed in my name.
The certificate was redeeemed by the original tax payer however he did not notify the CURRENT tax certificate holder and they allowed him to redeem due to the extra letter he sent me. Is this possible, how did they allow him to redeem when I’m not the tax certificate holder.

The taxpayer is given a new affidavit to send to the owner of record for the tax certificate. If the taxpayers sends it by certified mail, and then returns to the redemptions office showing the letter was unclaimed, or it was claimed with no response within ten days after being claimed, they will let him redeem.
