ACKNOWLEDGING DEBT IN BANKRUPTCY PLAN RENEWED THE STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS WHICH STARTED TO RUN UPON GRANT OF DISCHARGE IN BANKRUPTCY.

The Second Department determined the statute of limitations re: a default on a note secured by a mortgage was renewed when defendant (Raudkivi) acknowledged the debt in his bankruptcy plan. The statute therefore began to run when defendant was granted a discharge in bankruptcy, which occurred less than six years before suit was brought:

Raudkivi’s Chapter 13 bankruptcy plan, in which he acknowledged the mortgage debt and promised to repay it, renewed the limitations period (see General Obligations Law § 17-105[1]…). The automatic bankruptcy stay, which was in effect when Raudkivi executed his Chapter 13 bankruptcy plan, tolled the renewed limitations period (see CPLR 204[a]…), so the renewed limitations period did not begin to run until Raudkivi was granted his discharge in bankruptcy in October of 2006 (see 11 USC § 362[c][2][C]). Since this action was commenced less than six years later, in July of 2012, this action is not time-barred. PSP-NC, LLC v Raudkivi, 2016 NY Slip Op 02632, 2nd Dept 4-6-16
