Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Mortgage Foreclosure Article of the Code of Civil Procedure. Defines "omitted subordinate interest". Provides that certain persons holding real estate encumbered by an omitted subordinate interest may file a strict foreclosure complaint consisting substantially of certain specified information. Provides that subject to the objection of the defendant, the court shall enter a judgment extinguishing the omitted subordinate interest by vesting absolute title to the mortgaged real estate in the plaintiff. Provides procedures by which a holder of an omitted subordinate interest may redeem the interest. Provides that a person whose omitted subordinate interest was not terminated by a prior foreclosure action does not have a right to file a strict foreclosure action. Effective immediately.

House Committee Amendment No. 1
Replaces everything after the enacting clause with the provisions of the enacting clause, and makes the following changes: (1) specifies that the plaintiff may file a strict foreclosure complaint naming the person who has the omitted subordinate interest as the defendant; (2) provides that subject to the objection of the defendant, the court shall enter a judgment extinguishing the omitted subordinate interest (rather than "extinguishing the omitted subordinate interest by vesting absolute title to the mortgaged real estate in the plaintiff, free and clear of all claims and liens (except liens of the United States of America that cannot be foreclosed without judicial sale))"; (3) deletes language referring to whether good cause for an objection has been shown by the defendant; (4) provides that the amount required to redeem shall not include any costs or fees incurred by the plaintiff in the strict foreclosure case; (5) deletes language providing that upon payment of the redemption amount, title to the defendant shall be free and clear of all claims and liens (except liens of the United States of America that cannot be foreclosed without judicial sale); and (6) corrects typographical errors. Effective immediately.

House Floor Amendment No. 2
Provides that notwithstanding that the person's omitted subordinate interest in the real estate has been terminated, nothing in the new provisions shall be construed to extinguish or impair any claim of a person in the surplus proceeds of a sale after the confirmation of the sale of the real estate for which the person had an omitted subordinate interest.
