(Court opinion corrected 12/9/11.) Court granted Trust's Section 2-1401 petition to vacate tax deed, but denied Trust's request for money damages. Court properly found, under law of the case doctrine, that corporation was not a bona fide purchaser for value, as the issue had already been decided. Court properly denied request for money damages, as Trust failed to establish what damages it incurred per terms of recapture agreement. (BOWMAN and ZENOFF, concurring.)
