Ex parte Trenton Turner, Jr.

The Turners contended Wells Fargo Bank failed to give them proper notice of foreclosure required pursuant to Section 22 of their mortgage documents. Because they did not receive proper notice required by the mortgage, the Turners argued Wells Fargo was precluded from foreclosing on the property and that the foreclosure sale was void. The Alabama Supreme Court found that Wells Fargo indeed failed to provide the Turners with proper notice under the mortgage. Accordingly, because Wells Fargo failed to comply with the requirements of the mortgage, the mortgage sale conducted on February 27, 2012, failed. The Court of Civil Appeals’ judgment holding to the contrary was thus reversed and the matter remanded for further proceedings. View "Ex parte Trenton Turner, Jr." on Justia Law
