RPAPL 1301, WHICH PROHIBITS SIMULTANEOUS ACTIONS AT LAW TO RECOVER ON A NOTE AND ACTIONS IN EQUITY TO FORECLOSE A MORTGAGE, DOES NOT APPLY TO OUT-OF-STATE PROPERTIES; RPAPL 1371 DOES NOT APPLY TO OUT-OF-STATE FORECLOSURES AND THEREFORE DOES NOT PROVIDE A BASIS TO DEEM A JUDGMENT SATISFIED UPON A FORECLOSURE SALE (FIRST DEPT).

The First Department noted that RPAPL 1301 and 1371 do not apply to out-of-state foreclosures:

The motion court properly rejected defendants’ position that RPAPL 1301 was a ground to deny plaintiff’s motion. That section “prohibits a mortgage lender seeking repayment of a loan from simultaneously prosecuting an action at law to recover upon a promissory note and an action in equity to foreclose the mortgage” … . However, RPAPL 1301 does not apply “where, as here, the property securing the loan is located outside of New York State” … . This is the case even though the parties in their loan documents agreed that New York law would govern any disputes arising from the agreements.

Similarly, RPAPL 1371 does not apply to out-of-state foreclosures and therefore does not provide a basis to deem the judgment against defendants satisfied upon the foreclosure sale of the properties … . Thus, defendants’ motion seeking an order deeming the judgment satisfied because plaintiff failed to move for a deficiency judgment after the out-of-state properties were foreclosed upon and sold was also properly denied. WPC Billboard Lender LLC v Bartkowski, 2026 NY Slip Op 02951, First Dept 5-12-26
