FILING A 90 DAY NOTICE AND THEN DISCONTINUING THE FORECLOSURE ACTION IN 2014 DID NOT REVOKE THE ELECTION TO ACCELERATE REPRESENTED BY THE FILING OF THE SUMMONS AND COMPLAINT IN 2008, FORECLOSURE ACTION PROPERLY DISMISSED AS UNTIMELY (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department determined the foreclosure action was untimely. The summons and complaint operated to accelerate the debt, triggering the six-year statute of limitations. The fact that the plaintiff bank filed a 90-day notice within the six years and then subsequently discontinued the foreclosure action did not revoke the election to accelerate:

​

The filing of the summons and complaint seeking the entire unpaid balance of principal in the prior foreclosure action constituted a valid election by the plaintiff to accelerate the maturity of the debt… . This established that the mortgage debt was accelerated on April 11, 2008, and that the applicable six-year statute of limitations had expired by the time the plaintiff commenced the instant action on July 8, 2014 … .

In opposition, the plaintiff failed to raise a triable issue of fact as to whether it affirmatively revoked its election to accelerate the mortgage debt within the six-year limitations period … . The plaintiff voluntarily discontinued the prior foreclosure action on April 23, 2014, after the statute of limitations had expired, and it failed to demonstrate that its April 8, 2014, 90-day notice, as a matter of law, “destroy[ed] the effect of the sworn statement that the plaintiff had elected to accelerate the maturity of the debt” … . Deutsche Bank Natl. Trust Co. v Adrian, 2018 NY Slip Op 00543, Second Dept 1-31-18
