Evidence, Foreclosure

THE COMPUTATIONS IN THE REFEREE’S REPORT IN THIS FORECLOSURE ACTION WERE BASED UPON BUSINESS RECORDS WHICH WERE NOT PRODUCED; THE REPORT SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN CONFIRMED (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department, reversing Supreme Court in this foreclosure action, determined the referee’s report should not have been confirmed because computations were based on business records which were not produced:

The Supreme Court should have denied the plaintiff’s motion to confirm the referee’s report and for a judgment of foreclosure and sale because the referee’s computations as to escrow disbursements and advancements and property inspection fees were premised upon unproduced business records … . JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. v Bracco, 2021 NY Slip Op 06839, Second Dept 12-8-21
