THE PLAINTIFF BANK DID NOT DEMONSTRATE IT HAD STANDING TO BRING THE FORECLOSURE ACTION (SECOND DEPT),

The Second Department, reversing Supreme Court, determined plaintiff bank did not demonstrate standing to bring the foreclosure action:

Wells Fargo failed to establish, prima facie, that it had possession of the note prior to the commencement of the action, and thus failed to establish that it had standing to foreclose the mortgage … . Wells Fargo did not attach a copy of the note and allonge to the complaint when the action was commenced to establish, prima facie, that it had possession of the note at that time … . Moreover, the affidavit of Wells Fargo’s vice president of loan documentation was insufficient to establish that Wells Fargo possessed the note at the time the action was commenced … . Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. v Elsman, 2020 NY Slip Op 00321, Second Dept 1-15-20
