Rose Bonaduce received a letter from the Harris County Appraisal District in August notifying her that a request to protest the value of her brand new home was scheduled for a hearing the following month. But there was a problem: she never filed a protest. Bonaduce's daughter, Karen Scott, posted the letter on her neighborhood Facebook group and discovered others who had also received notices for hearings they never requested. So on the date of her mother's hearing, Scott went to HCAD to get answers.
