Civil Procedure, Evidence, Foreclosure

THE FLAWS IN PLAINTIFF’S PROOF OF STANDING TO BRING THE FORECLOSURE ACTION DID NOT ENTITLE DEFENDANT TO SUMMARY JUDGMENT ON THE CROSS MOTION; SUMMARY JUDGMENT CANNOT BE GRANTED TO A MOVING PARTY BASED UPON FLAWS IN THE OPPOSING PAPERS.

The Second Department, modifying Supreme Court’s order, determined defendant was not entitled to summary judgment in a foreclosure proceeding. Defendant alleged plaintiff, Aurora Loan Services, did not have standing to bring the action (i.e., did not have possession of the note at the time the action was commenced). Aurora Loan Services was unable to demonstrate standing because the evidence submitted did not meet the requirements of the business records exception to the hearsay rule. Aurora’s summary judgment motion was therefore properly denied. However, the flaws in Aurora’s proof of standing did not entitle defendant to summary judgment on defendant’s cross motion. In the summary judgment context, the court first looks only at the moving party’s papers to determine whether the moving party has made a prima facie showing justifying summary judgment. Here the defendant’s papers did not demonstrate Aurora lacked standing. Therefore the cross motion should have been denied, notwithstanding the flaws in the plaintiff’s opposing papers.

… Supreme Court erred in granting the defendant’s cross motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint insofar as asserted against him for lack of standing and to cancel the notice of pendency filed against the subject property. “[T]he burden is on the moving defendant to establish, prima facie, the plaintiff’s lack of standing, rather than on the plaintiff to affirmatively establish its standing in order for the motion to be denied. To defeat a defendant’s motion, the plaintiff has no burden of establishing its standing as a matter of law” … . Here, the defendant, as the moving party, failed to make a prima facie showing that the plaintiff lacked standing … . Aurora Loan Servs., LLC v Mercius, 2016 NY Slip Op 02599, 2nd Dept 4-6-16
