41-6-504. Foreclosure of tax deeds; joinder of defendants; pleading; decree; rights of assignee of tax deed.
When a drainage or irrigation district is the plaintiff in any suit brought under the provisions hereof, it may join all owners of real estate covered by its tax sale certificates of purchase or tax deeds as defendants, whether jointly or separately interested in the real estate, or any part thereof, and may unite in such action any persons having or claiming to have any interest in the real estate described in the petition. The defendants may plead jointly or separately to the petition and the court shall try and determine all issues between the plaintiff and each and all of the defendants, and shall, in its decree, ascertain and determine the amount of taxes, interest and costs chargeable to each particular tract or lot of real estate, and state the name or names of all defendants who have an interest in each tract or lot of real estate upon which the lien is fixed by its decree. The fact that the owners of separate or different lots of real estate are joined as defendants in one (1) action shall not constitute a defense on the part of any one (1) or more of the defendants, or misjoinder of defendants, or causes of action, and like rights shall be extended to any assignee of said drainage or irrigation district, tax certificate or tax deeds.
