certificate;
(3) the regularity and validity of all proceedings related to the taxes
or special assessments for which the real property was sold; and
(4) the regularity and validity of all proceedings related to the sale of
the real property.
(b) After two (2) years from the issuance of a certificate of sale,
evidence may not be admitted in any court to rebut a presumption
