PROOF DID NOT DEMONSTRATE THE NOTICE REQUIREMENTS OF REAL PROPERTY ACTIONS AND PROCEEDINGS LAW (RPAPL) 1304 WERE MET (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department, reversing Supreme Court, determined the bank did not demonstrate that the notice requirements of RPAPL 1304 were met:

… Lechtanski [the loan servicer representative] did not have personal knowledge of the purported mailing and failed to make the requisite showing that he was familiar with the plaintiff’s mailing practices and procedures, and therefore, did not establish “proof of a standard office practice and procedure designed to ensure that items are properly addressed and mailed” … . Moreover, the copy of the notice annexed to the Lechtanski affidavits, while bearing a notation “VIA CERTIFIED AND FIRST CLASS MAIL,” bears no indicia of actual mailing such as postal codes and was unaccompanied by any mailing receipts or tracking information … . Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. v Taylor, 2019 NY Slip Op 01817, Second Dept 3-13-19
