Treasurer Judgment Collection
Judgments
In mid July, taxpayers are sent a demand letter by certified mail for payment of delinquent taxes and penalties for the prior year. Taxpayers are given thirty (30) days to make payment, after which time the treasurer certifies all delinquent unpaid personal property taxes and penalties to the Lake County courts.
Daily interest begins accruing when the judgment is filed in the courts.
Payments of judgments are only accepted at the Crown Point Treasurer's Office.
No Personal Checks will be accepted as payment on judgment. Judgment must be paid with Cash, Money Order, or Cashier's Check. Contact the Treasurer's Office for current amount due.
