Eastern District of California Dismisses Plaintiff’s Wrongful Foreclosure Claims Due to Plaintiffs’ Lack of Tender
The United States District Court, Eastern District of California in deciding the case of Small v. Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems, Inc., et al., No. 2:09-CV-0458 (E. D. Cal., 2010), concluded that dismissing the plaintiff’s wrongful foreclosure claims due to lack of tender by the plaintiffs was appropriate.
Plaintiffs filed their foreclosure action, naming three entities and two individuals as defendants, and alleged causes of action for unlawful foreclosure and unlawful eviction.
Defendants sought dismissal of plaintiffs’ complaint pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6) on the grounds that plaintiffs failed to state any cognizable claim. After considering the plaintiff’s claims, the court dismissed them due to lack of tender by the plaintiff.
