SDIL: Important Announcement Regarding Marion County Real Estate Taxes

October 31, 2019 9:27 AM | Christopher Smith (Administrator)

The following was received from the Chapter 13 Trustee for SDIL - Russell Simon:

To the Members of the Bar:

Effective immediately, Marion County will permit the payment of delinquent property taxes to be paid through the Debtors’ Plan. The interest rate to be paid Marion County is 0%.

Please ensure that the creditor is listed as follows:

Marion County Treasurer

Attn: Bankruptcy Clerk

100 E Main St

Salem, IL 62881

The procedures for both scheduling and addressing the claim in the plan are identical to those for the other counties allowing payment of delinquent real estate taxes, and can be found on my website under the “News” section. You will also find the applicable address and interest rate information requested by the participating counties.

Note that these procedures require certain information, in a certain order/format – this is so the county will accept and may accurately apply payments received from the Trustee. These procedures must be followed precisely or an objection will be raised.

These procedures will be supplemented as additional counties are added. Please reach out with any additional questions or concerns.

Regards,

Russell C. Simon

Chapter 13 Standing Trustee

Southern District of Illinois
