U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 15-2550
U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri - St. Louis
[PUBLISHED] [Gruender, Author, with Loken and Kelly, Circuit Judges]
Civil case - Federal taxes. The district court did not err in determining
that the government's 2004 tax lien on a foreclosed property had priority;
the 2004 deed of trust the bank relied on to assert priority had been
released, and its 2006 deed of trust was junior to the government's lien
and was not entitled to priority; the district court did not err in
concluding that a more than two-month gap between the release and the
recording of the new deed meant the 2006 deed of trust did not revive the
released lien. Judge Loken, dissenting.
