CHAPTER 3. MORTGAGOR'S EQUITY OF REDEMPTION AND MORTGAGE
SUBSTITUTES
§ 3.1 The Mortgagor's Equity of Redemption and Agreements Limiting It
Mich.2020. Com. (a) quot. in ftn. to conc. op. Property owners sued county and its treasurer, alleging
that, after defendants foreclosed on their properties and sold them at public auction to collect unpaid
property taxes, defendants unconstitutionally retained all sale proceeds in excess of the taxes, interest,
penalties, and fees. The trial court granted summary judgment for defendants, and the court of appeals
affirmed. This court reversed and remanded, holding that plaintiffs were entitled to just compensation
because they had a cognizable, vested property right to the surplus proceeds resulting from the tax-
foreclosure sale of their properties, which continued to exist even after fee-simple title to the properties
vested with defendants. The concurring opinion cited Restatement Third of Property: Mortgages § 3.1 in
noting that, historically, the equity of redemption, under which a borrower could redeem the property
by paying off the debt after defaulting, was considered a property right that came to represent the
homeowner's interest in the property, known as equity. Rafaeli, LLC v. Oakland County, 952 N.W.2d
434, 477, 478.
CHAPTER 5. TRANSFERS OF MORTGAGED REAL ESTATE AND MORTGAGES
§ 5.4 Transfer of Mortgages and Obligations Secured by Mortgages
E.D.N.Y.2020. Com. (b) quot. in case quot. in sup. Chapter 7 debtor filed an adversary proceeding
against, among others, current and previous servicers of a mortgage on his cooperative apartment,
seeking to cancel and discharge the note and mortgage on the ground that the note did not contain an
allonge recording the transfer of indorsements to current servicer. This court granted summary judgment
for current servicer, holding, among other things, that current servicer was a creditor with standing to
enforce the note because it had physical possession of the original note. The court cited Restatement
Third of Property: Mortgages § 5.4 in noting that possession of an original note conferred standing both
as a creditor and as a lienholder, because a transfer in full of the obligation automatically transferred the
mortgage as well unless the parties agreed that the transferor was to retain the mortgage. In re Murray,
624 B.R. 532, 547.
CHAPTER 6. PAYMENT AND DISCHARGE
§ 6.4 Redemption from Mortgage by Performance or Tender
Kan.App.2020. Subsec. (a) and (e) and com. (a) quot. in sup. After bank brought a foreclosure action
against property owners for defaulting on a mortgage securing their real property, purported assignee of
