Proving Wrongful Foreclosure If you wish to sue the bank for wrongful foreclosure, you must prove the following: The lender owed you, the borrower, a legal duty. The lender breached that duty. The breach of duty caused your injury or loss (damages)
A lender can rescind a foreclosure sale if a borrower requests to reinstate the loan agreements and then makes payment to bring the loan balance current, provided this is done more than five days before the scheduled sale date.
To contest a judicial foreclosure, you have to file a written answer to the complaint (the lawsuit). You'll need to present your defenses and explain the reasons why the lender shouldn't be able to foreclose. You might need to defend yourself against a motion for summary judgment and at trial.
