Section 2833 - Jointly owned property - Listing, assessment and taxation - Taxes as lienA. If any real estate in this state is jointly owned by two or more persons, or by tenants in common, and the interest of one or more of such joint owners or tenants in common is subject to taxation, and that of the others is not, then it shall be the duty of the joint owners or tenants in common whose interests are subject to taxation to list such undivided interests for taxation at the time and in the same manner as other taxable property is listed.B. In any other case where the owner of an undivided interest in real estate desires to have his interest separately assessed, he shall list such undivided interest with the county assessor and advise the county assessor of the name and amounts owned by other owners of undivided interests in such real estate.C. In either instance, it shall be the duty of the county assessor to assess such undivided interest or interests for taxation as other property. Such assessment shall be equalized, and taxes levied and extended against the same, as other taxable property.D. Such taxes shall be a lien on such interest and if same be not paid and become delinquent, it shall be the duty of the county treasurer to advertise and sell such interests as in the case of other real property for delinquent taxes, and the purchasers at such sale shall be entitled to certificate of purchase, and to a deed if not redeemed, and all other rights and remedies as in cases of the sale of other real estate for taxes. If any such interests in real estate have been omitted or escaped taxation for any year or years for which same was liable, it shall be the duty of all officers to discover and assess the same for such omitted year or years the same as other property which has been omitted or escaped taxation, and such taxes shall be a lien and collected in the same manner and to the same extent as other taxes on omitted property.Okla.
