ATTORNEY FOR PLAINTIFF
CUMBERLAND COUNTY
COURT OF COMMON PLEAS
CIVIL DIVISION
NO. 03-2379
BRIEF OF LAW IN SUPPORT OF
PLAINTIFF'S MOTION TO ~SESS DAMAGEE
I. BACKGROUND OF CASE
Plaintiff and Defendant(s) entered into a Promissory Note and Mortgage
Agreement, wherein Defendant(s) agreed to pay Plaintiff principal, interest,
late charges, real estate taxes, hazard insurance premiums and mortgage
insurance premiums as said monies became due. In turn, Plaintiff's Note was
secured by a mortgage on the subject premises. The Mortgage Agreement
indicates that in the event Defendant(s) defaults, Plaintiff may pay any
necessary obligations in order to protect its collateral, the subject premises.
In the case sub judlcia, Defendant(s) failed to abide by the Mortgage
Agreement by failing to tender numerous, promised monthly mortgage payments.
Accordingly, after Plaintiff determined that Defendant(s) were not going to
cure the default and bring the loan current, Plaintiff commenced a Mortgage
Foreclosure Action.
Judgment was subsequently entered by the Court, and the subject property
is scheduled for Sheriff's Sale.
Because of the excessive period of time between the initiation of the
Mortgage Foreclosure Action, the entry of Judgment and the Sheriff's Sale date,
damages as previously assessed by the Court are outdated and must be increased
to include current interest, real estate taxes, insurance premiums, and other
expenses which Plaintiff has been obligated to pay under the Mortgage Agreement
in order to protect its interest.
II. ARGIIMENT FOR R~&~.~W~T OF DA~A~E~
The Pennsylvania Rules of Civil Procedure are silent with respect to the
issue of Reassessment of Damages; however, Rule 1037 provides, "the
Prothonotary shall assess damages for the amount which Plaintiff is entitled if
it
instant case, the amount to which Plaintiff is entitled is
by review of the Mortgage Agreement, which is of record,
Complaint which specifically lists the items chargeable.
is a sum certain or which can be made certain by computation...,, In the
readily calculated
together with the
Clearly, if Rule 1037 gives the Prothonotary the right to assess damages
for the amount to which Plaintiff is entitled as set forth in the Complaint,
the Court has similar power to reassess damages at a later date.
In addition, Rule 1037(a) provides that the Court, on motion of a party,
may enter an appropriate judgment against a party upon default or admission.
If the Court has the power to enter judgment, it certainly has the power to do
a lesser act, to wit, reassess damages.
It is settled law in Pennsylvania that the Court may exercise its
equitable powers to control the enforcement of a judgment and to grant any
relief until that judgment is satisfied. 20 P.L.E., Judgments Sec. 191. See
also, Stephenson v. Butts, 187 Pa.Super 55, 59, 142 A.2d 319, 321 (1958); Chase
Home Mortqaqe Corporation of the Southwest v. Good, 537 A.2d 22, 24 (Pa. Super
1988).
In Chase Home Mortqaq~, the Court stated that where a judgment has been
assessed following defendant's failure to file a responsive pleading in a
mortgage foreclosure action, a mortgagee "...could properly move the court to
amend the judgment to add additional sums due by virtue if the mortgage's
failure to comply with the terms of the mortgage agreement...,, Id. at 24.
Because a judgment in mortgage foreclosure is strictly in rem, it is critical
that the judgment reflect those amounts expended by the Plaintiff in protecting
the property. See Meco Reality Company v. Burns, 414 Pa. 495, 200 A.2d 335
(1971).
Plaintiff
damages, and
submits that if Plaintiff went to sale without reassessing
if there was competitive bidding for the subject premises,
Plaintiff would suffer irreparable harm in that it would not be able to recoup
monies it paid to protect its interest. Conversely, a reassessment of damages
will not be detrimental whatsoever to Defendant(s) as it imputes no personal
liability.
The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania found in the Landau v. Western Pa. Nat.
Bank case that the debt owed on a mortgage
changes and can be expected to change from day to day, because Western
Pennsylvania must pay expenses for the property in order to protect its
collateral. 445 Pa. 117, 282 A.2d 335 (1971). Because a mortgage lien is not
extinguished until the debt is paid, Plaintiff must protect its collateral up
until the date of sale. See Beckman v. Altoona Trust Co., 332 Pa. 545, 2 A.2d
826 (1939).
Therefore, Plaintiff respectfully submits that if the enforcement of its
rights are delayed by legal proceedings and enforcement of its judgment, and
such delays require the mortgagee to expend additional sums pursuant to the
Mortgage, then said expenses become part of the mortgagee's lien and should be
included in said judgment. AS the Court indicated in FNMA v. Jefferson, an
unreported case a copy of which is attached hereto, since the charges
enumerated in Plaintiff's Motion for Reassessment of Damages were incurred
pursuant to the Mortgage Agreement, and the mortgage had not yet been paid,
said charges should be included in Plaintiff's judgment amount. May Term, 1986,
No. 2359 (CCP PHILA. 1986).
III. CONCLUSION
Plaintiff respectfully requests this Honorable Court grant its Petition to
Reassess Damages. Plaintiff respectfully submits that it has acted in good
faith in maintaining the property in accordance with the Mortgage, and in
reliance on said instrument with the understanding that it would recover the
monies it expended to protect its collateral.
WHEREFORE, Plaintiff respectfully requests this Honorable Court to
reassess the damages as set forth in the Petition to Reassess Damages.
