10-25-18. Time allowed for completion of proceedings to procure tax deed--Cancellation of certificate and bar of lien. The commencement of proceedings to procure a tax deed within the periods limited in §§ 10-25-16 and 10-25-17 does not extend the lien of the holder of the tax sale certificates more than six months beyond the expiration of the periods of limitations. If any such proceedings, commenced within the time limited by §§ 10-25-16 and 10-25-17, are not completed, and the right of the party instituting the proceedings to receive a tax deed under the provisions of §§ 10-25-1 to 10-25-12, inclusive, is not fully completed and established, within six months after the expiration of six years from the date of the tax sale certificate upon which the proceedings are based; allowing, however, to purchasers of tax sale certificates assigned by the county the additional period of one year from the date of the assignment within which to commence such proceedings and six months after the expiration of the period of one year within which to complete the proceedings; then all rights under the proceedings cease and are forever barred and the county treasurer shall cancel the tax sale certificate in the manner provided in § 10-25-16. Thereupon, the lien of the holder of the tax sale certificate is extinguished and all further proceedings on the tax sale certificate are barred.
