Disposition

  • The Court of Appeals affirmed the judgment of the district court denying Defendant’s motion to set aside the foreclosure judgment and sale.

Reasons

  • Per Michael E. Vigil, J. (Linda M. Vanzi, Chief Judge, and Stephen G. French, Judge, concurring): The Court of Appeals found the Defendant's standing challenge unpersuasive, citing two main reasons. First, the attempt to void the final foreclosure judgment through a challenge grounded in Rule 1-060(B) is contrary to precedent established in Deutsche Bank National Trust Co. v. Johnston, which held that completed foreclosure judgments are not voidable pursuant to Rule 1-060(B) for lack of standing (para 2). Second, the record appeared to demonstrate that the Plaintiff met the standing requirements as articulated in relevant case law under the Uniform Commercial Code (para 2). The Defendant did not address the Court's analyses of these reasons, leading to the affirmation of the district court's judgment (para 2).
