THE NOTICE OF FORECLOSURE WAS SENT TO DEFENDANT IN AN ENVELOPE WHICH INCLUDED OTHER NOTICES, A VIOLATION OF RPAPL 1304 (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department, reversing Supreme Court, determined the bank violated the “separate envelope” rule (RPAPL 1304) in that the foreclosure notice sent to defendant included notices in addition to the foreclosure notice:

… [T]he plaintiff failed to establish, prima facie, that it complied with the “separate envelope” requirement of RPAPL 1304(2). “[I]nclusion of any material in the separate envelope sent to the borrower under RPAPL 1304 that is not expressly delineated in these provisions constitutes a violation of the separate envelope requirement of RPAPL 1304(2)” … . The envelope containing the requisite notice under RPAPL 1304 included notices pertaining to the Federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (15 USC et seq.) and bankruptcy, and, therefore, the plaintiff failed to establish, prima facie, its strict compliance with RPAPL 1304 … . US Bank N.A. v Lanzetta, 2022 NY Slip Op 04322, Second Dept 7-6-22

Practice Point: Here the notice of foreclosure was sent to defendant in an envelope with other notices, a violation of RPAPL 1304, which must be strictly complied with.
