                    PROPERTY 3D: MORTGAGES




  Generally

  Neb.2021. Cit. generally in sup. Estate of deceased seller of real property sued buyer, seeking, among
  other things, to eject defendant from the property, because defendant defaulted on his yearly installment
  payments under the land contract between decedent and defendant. The trial court entered judgment for
  plaintiff and granted plaintiff's request to eject defendant. This court reversed and remanded, holding
  that plaintiff could not seek defendant's ejectment for default, because the land contract did not mandate
  that defendant forfeit his equitable ownership of the property upon failure to make yearly payments in
  full. Citing the Restatement Third of Property: Mortgages, the court reasoned that the seller of real
  property retained legal title until the buyer conveyed the purchase money in full, because a land contract
  created a mortgage, but a seller could not, on its own volition, terminate the buyer's right to possession
  of the property. Beckner v. Urban, 962 N.W.2d 497, 507.



         CHAPTER 3. MORTGAGOR'S EQUITY OF REDEMPTION AND MORTGAGE
                                          SUBSTITUTES

  § 3.4 A Contract for Deed Creates a Mortgage

  Neb.2021. Subsec. (a) and (b) quot. in sup.; com. (a) cit. in sup. Estate of deceased seller of real
  property sued buyer, seeking, among other things, to eject defendant from the property, because
  defendant defaulted on his yearly installment payments under the land contract between decedent and
  defendant. The trial court entered judgment for plaintiff and granted plaintiff's request to eject
  defendant. This court reversed and remanded, holding that plaintiff could not seek defendant's ejectment
  for default. The court observed that plaintiff owned a mortgage burdening the property through the land
  contract, which, under Restatement Third of Property: Mortgages § 3.4, meant that it could regain
  possession of the property upon defendant's default, but state law disfavored such forfeiture unless it
  was justified by the equitable circumstances. Beckner v. Urban, 962 N.W.2d 497, 507.



      CHAPTER 4. RIGHTS AND DUTIES OF THE PARTIES PRIOR TO FORECLOSURE

  § 4.1 Mortgage Creates Security Interest Only

  C.A.1, 2021. Com. (a) quot. in sup. Beneficiary of deceased mother's estate sued co-executrixes of the
  estate, alleging, inter alia, that defendants failed to discharge the mortgage burdening plaintiff's
  Massachusetts condominium  unit pursuant to the terms of a mortgage agreement between plaintiff and
  decedent. The district court granted defendants' motion to dismiss. This court reversed in part and
  remanded, holding that it had personal jurisdiction over defendants, because plaintiff's claims arose
  from decedent's interest in the Massachusetts property such that she satisfied Massachusetts long-arm
