67-5-2701. Persons entitled to redeem property.

(a)  For purposes of this part, “person entitled to redeem property” includes any person who owns a legal or equitable interest in the property sold at the tax sale and creditors of the taxpayer having a lien on the property; provided, that, once property has been redeemed by the taxpayer, no further redemptions under this part are permissible. The taxpayer may redeem the property regardless of whether any other person has previously redeemed the property during the one-year redemption period.

(b)  In any county having a charter form of government and having a population of less than four hundred thousand (400,000), according to the 1990 federal census or any subsequent federal census, the taxpayer may redeem the property within the redemption period established in § 67-5-2702 for counties having a charter form of government.
