N.J. Stat. § 54:5-29: Payment of amount due prior to tax sale; priority.

At any time before sale the collector shall receive payment of the amount due on any property, together with the interest and costs set forth in R.S.54:5-38, incurred up to the time of payment. When a taxpayer whose property is included in a tax sale shall, prior to the sale, pay the full amount advertised in the sale, plus any interest on any other delinquencies, the tax collector shall then post the receipts, first to the interest, followed by the oldest delinquencies, costs and penalties which action shall then be cause for said property to be removed from the sale.
