The New Jersey Notice of Motion to Stay Sheriff's Sale and Referral to Mediation is a legal document that is filed when a borrower is facing foreclosure. This document is used to request an order from the court that would temporarily stay (stop or delay) a sheriff's sale of a property, and refer the matter to mediation. The Notice of Motion to Stay Sheriff's Sale and Referral to Mediation is typically filed by a homeowner or borrower. There are two types of New Jersey Notice of Motion to Stay Sheriff's Sale and Referral to Mediation. The first is an Emergency Motion, which is filed when a sheriff's sale is imminent and the borrower needs an immediate stay of the sale. The second is a Regular Motion, which is filed when the sheriff's sale is not imminent, and the borrower needs a stay of the sale to pursue a loan modification or other options. The Notice of Motion to Stay Sheriff's Sale and Referral to Mediation must provide details of the foreclosure proceedings and the reasons why the borrower is requesting a stay of the sale. It must also include a request for the court to refer the matter to mediation. If the motion is successful, the court will issue an order that temporarily stays the sheriff's sale and refers the matter to mediation.
