THE FORECLOSURE ACTION WAS TIME-BARRED; THE DISCONTINUANCE DID NOT DE-ACCELERATE THE DEBT (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department, reversing Supreme Court, determined defendant’s motion for summary judgment in this foreclosure action should have been granted. The action was time-barred. The debt was accelerated when the foreclosure action was started and the discontinuance did not de-accelerate the debt:

Plaintiff’s … contention—that the stipulation of discontinuance in the 2007 action revoked the acceleration of the debt—is likewise without merit. … Here, the stipulation of discontinuance in the 2007 action is silent on the issue of the revocation of the election to accelerate and does not otherwise indicate that the plaintiff would accept installment payments from the defendant and thus did not constitute an affirmative act revoking acceleration … . Deutsche Bank Natl. Trust Co. v Ebanks, 2020 NY Slip Op 08035, Second Dept 12-30-20
