THE BANK IN THIS FORECLOSURE ACTION DID NOT DEMONSTRATE COMPLIANCE WITH THE NOTICE REQUIREMENTS OF RPAPL 1304; I.E., THE NOTICE MUST BE MAILED IN A SEPARATE ENVELOPE WITH NO OTHER MATERIALS, AND THE NOTICE MUST BE SENT SEPARATELY TO EACH BORROWER (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department, reversing Supreme Court in this foreclosure action, determined plaintiff did not comply with the RPAPL 1304 requirements that the 90-day notice of foreclosure be mailed in a separate envelope and that the notice be sent separately to both borrowers:

… [T]he plaintiff failed to establish … that it strictly complied with RPAPL 1304, since additional material was sent in the same envelope as the 90-day notice required by RPAPL 1304 … , and a single notice was jointly addressed to both defendants … . HSBC Bank USA, N.A. v DiBenedetti, 2022 NY Slip Op 02983, Second Dept 5-4-22

Practice Point: RPAPL 1304, which must be strictly complied with by the bank in any foreclosure action, requires (1) that the 90-day notice of foreclosure be sent in a separate envelope which includes nothing else and (2) that the 90-day notice be sent separately to each borrower.
