TITLE 36: TAXATION
Chapter 7: UNIFORM ADMINISTRATIVE PROVISIONS
36 §178. Priority of tax
Part 1: GENERAL PROVISIONS
§178. Priority of tax
Whenever the estate of a deceased person liable for any tax is insufficient to pay all the debts owed by the decedent or whenever the estate and effects of an absconding, concealed or absent person liable for any tax are levied upon by process of law, the tax, together with interest attaching thereto, must be first settled. This section may not be construed to give the State a preference over any recorded lien that attached prior to the date when the tax became due. [2005, c. 218, §7 (NEW).]
