North Dakota § 1-04-11

• Jurisdiction: North Dakota
• Title 1: General Provisions
• Ch. 1-04: Validation of Instruments

Text

If a sheriff's certificate of sale of any real property in this state, made in favor or in the name
of a deceased person, or of the estate of a deceased person, or the executor or administrator
thereof, prior to January 1, 1943, on which a sheriff's deed has not been issued, it is lawful and
proper in case of the issuance of a sheriff's deed upon such certificate, to issue the same to the
domestic or foreign executor or administrator of said estate, as the case may be, or if a final
decree of distribution has been issued by any domestic or foreign court having jurisdiction and
control of a mortgage under and through which a sheriff's certificate was obtained assigning or
transferring such sheriff's certificate to any person, it is lawful and proper to issue a sheriff's
deed to the person to whom such certificate has been assigned or transferred, upon the
recording of an authenticated copy of such decree in the office of the recorder of the county in
which such property is located. The fact that any such deed, judgment, decree, or other transfer
has been issued, is in itself presumptive evidence of good faith.
