IN THIS FORECLOSURE ACTION, THE BANK’S PROOF OF MAILING THE RPAPL 1304 NOTICE WAS INSUFFICIENT (SECOND DEPT). ​

The Second Department, reversing Supreme Court in this foreclosure action, determined the bank’s proof that the RPAPL 1304 notice was properly mialed to the defendant was insufficient:

… [A]lthough Gonzales [an employee of plaintiff Wilmington’s loan servicer] stated in her affidavit that RPAPL 1304 notices were mailed by certified and first-class mail, and attached copies of those notices, Wilmington failed to attach any documents showing that the mailings actually happened … . Further, Gonzales did not aver that she had personal knowledge of the purported mailings, and did not describe any standard office procedure designed to ensure that notices are properly addressed and mailed … . Accordingly, Wilmington failed to establish, prima facie, compliance with RPAPL 1304 … . Wilmington Sav. Fund Socy., FSB v Novis, 2021 NY Slip Op 06720, Second Dept 12-1-21
