26-38-105. Reissuance of deed to show tracts sold separately.

(a) Upon the presentation of any void tax deed, showing upon its face that two (2) or more tracts of land were sold together when in fact the tracts were sold separately, to the clerk of the county court of the county in which the lands were sold for taxes and the clerk being satisfied from the records of his office that the several tracts of land contained in the deed were sold separately, the clerk shall file the void deed in his office and cancel it. The clerk shall thereupon execute in lieu thereof a deed for the tracts of land, reciting the execution of the former deed, and the date thereof, the error therein, that each tract was sold separately, and the amount for which the land was sold, and, in all other respects, conform to the requirement of law.

(b) The deed when executed, as provided in subsection (a) of this section, shall relate back to the void deed and have the same force and effect, both in law and equity, as if executed on the same day.
