SUPREME COURT SHOULD NOT HAVE DISMISSED THE FORECLOSURE ACTION AFTER TRIAL ON THE GROUND PLAINTIFF DID NOT LAY A PROPER FOUNDATION FOR THE ADMISSION OF THE DOCUMENTS REQUIRED TO MAKE OUT A PRIMA FACIE CASE; COMPLAINT REINSTATED AND JUDGMENT AWARDED TO PLAINTIFF (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department, reversing Supreme Court, determined plaintiff in this foreclosure action properly laid a proper foundation at trial for the admission of documents making out a prima facie case. Therefore the action should not have been dismissed and a judgment in favor of plaintiff should have been entered. At trial plaintiff established standing to bring the action, the defendant’s default, and compliance with the notice provisions of RPAPL 1304. Bank of Am., N.A. v Bloom, 2022 NY Slip Op 00839, Second Dept 2-9-22
