Civil Procedure, Foreclosure

LENDER DID NOT NEGOTIATE A MORTGAGE MODIFICATION IN GOOD FAITH AND WAS PROPERLY SANCTIONED.

The Second Department determined plaintiff-lender did not negotiate a mortgage modification in good faith and was properly sanctioned by the tolling of interest, costs and attorney’s fees accrued during the four years of negotiations:

Pursuant to CPLR 3408(f), the parties at a mandatory foreclosure settlement conference are required to negotiate in good faith to reach a mutually agreeable resolution … . “The purpose of the good faith requirement . . . is to ensure that both plaintiff and defendant are prepared to participate in a meaningful effort at the settlement conference to reach resolution” … . Compliance with the good faith requirement is measured by the totality of the circumstances and whether the party’s conduct demonstrates a meaningful effort at reaching a resolution … .

Here, the totality of the circumstances supports the finding that the plaintiff failed to negotiate in good faith. The hearing evidence demonstrated that the plaintiff, among other things, engaged in dilatory conduct by making piecemeal document requests, providing contradictory information, and repeatedly requesting documents that had already been provided … . Aurora Loan Servs., LLC v Diakite, 2017 NY Slip Op 01528, 2nd Dept 3-1-17
