PLAINTIFF BANK DID NOT DEMONSTRATE COMPLIANCE WITH THE NOTICE REQUIREMENTS OF RPAPL 1304 AND THE MORTGAGE IN THIS FORECLOSURE ACTION (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department, reversing Supreme Court, determined the plaintiff bank did not demonstrate compliance with the notice requirements of RPAPL 1304 and the mortgage. Therefore the bank’s motion for summary judgment in this foreclosure action should not have been granted:

… [T]he plaintiff failed to submit proof of the actual mailings, such as the affidavits of mailing or domestic return receipts with attendant signatures, or proof of a standard mailing procedure designed to ensure that items are properly addressed and mailed, sworn to by someone with personal knowledge of the procedure. Instead, the plaintiff relied on the affidavit of an employee of the plaintiff’s loan servicer, who did not attest that she had personal knowledge that the notices were mailed, or attest to a standard office mailing procedure designed to ensure that items are properly addressed and mailed … .

Likewise, relying on the same affidavit, the plaintiff failed to establish compliance with the requirements for a notice of default pursuant to sections 15 and 22 of the mortgage agreement. Statements in the employee’s affidavit, “which asserted that the notice of default was sent in accordance with the terms of the mortgage, [were] unsubstantiated and conclusory and . . . , even when considered together with the copy of the notice of default, failed to show that the required notice was in fact mailed by first class mail or actually delivered to the designated address if sent by other means, as required by the subject mortgage” … . U.S. Bank N.A. v Peykar, 2021 NY Slip Op 03077, Second Dept 5-12-21
