CUMBERLAND COUNTY ATTORNEY REFERRAL CUMBERLAND COUNTY BAR ASSOCIATION CUMBERLAND COUNTY COURTHOUSE 2 LIBERTY AVENUE CARLISLE, PA 17013 (717) 249-3166 (800) 990-9108 File #: 219136 1. Plaintiff is BAC HOME LOANS SERVICING, L.P. 7105 CORPORATE DRIVE PLANO, TX 75024 2. The name(s) and last known address(es) of the Defendant(s) are: MICHAEL J. KOTZ 42 WEST WILLOW STREET CARLISLE, PA 17013-3859 who is/are the mortgagor(s) and/or real owner(s) of the property hereinafter described. 3. On 06/14/2006 mortgagor(s) made, executed and delivered a mortgage upon the premises hereinafter described to MORTGAGE ELECTRONIC REGISTRATION SYSTEMS, INC., AS A NOMINEE FOR FIRST RESIDENTIAL MORTGAGE NETWORK, INC DB/A SUREPOINT LENDING which mortgage is recorded in the Office of the Recorder of CUMBERLAND County, in Mortgage Book No. 1955, Page 2529. The PLAINTIFF is now the legal owner of the mortgage and is in the process of formalizing an assignment of same. The mortgage and assignment(s), if any, are matters of public record and are incorporated herein by reference in accordance with Pa.R.C.P. 1019(g); which Rule relieves the Plaintiff from its obligations to attach documents to pleadings if those documents are of public record. 4. The premises subject to said mortgage is described as attached. The mortgage is in default because monthly payments of principal and interest upon said mortgage due 06/01/2009 and each month thereafter are due and unpaid, and by the terms of said mortgage, upon failure of mortgagor to make such payments after a date specified by written notice sent to Mortgagor, the entire principal balance and all interest due thereon are collectible forthwith. File #: 219136 6. The following amounts are due on the mortgage: Principal Balance $48,523.51 Interest $2,052.33 05/01/2009 through 11/19/2009 (Per Diem $10.11) Attorney's Fees $1,300.00 Cumulative Late Charges $87.40 06/14/2006 to 11/19/2009 Cost of Suit and Title Search SSSZQQ Subtotal $52,513.24 Escrow Credit $0.00 Deficit $75.58 Subtotal $75-59 TOTAL $52,588.82 7 8. If the mortgage is reinstated prior to a Sheriffs Sale, the attorney's fee set forth above may be less than the amount demanded based on work actually performed. The attorney's fees requested are in conformity with the mortgage and Pennsylvania law. Plaintiff reserves its right to collect attorney's fees up to 5% of the remaining principal balance in the event the property is sold to a third party purchaser at Sheriffs Sale, or if the complexity of the action requires additional fees in excess of the amount demanded in the Action. Plaintiff is not seeking a judgment of personal liability (or an in personam judgment) against the Defendant(s) in the Action; however, Plaintiff reserves its right to bring a separate Action to establish that right, if such right exists. If Defendant(s) has/have received a discharge of personal liability in a bankruptcy proceeding, this Action of Mortgage Foreclosure is in no way an attempt to reestablish such personal liability discharged in bankruptcy, but only to foreclose the mortgage and sell the mortgaged premises pursuant to Pennsylvania Law. File #: 219136 9. Notice of Intention to Foreclose as set forth in Act 6 of 1974, Notice of Homeowner's Emergency Assistance Program pursuant to Act 91 of 1983, as amended in 1998, and/or Notice of Default as required by the mortgage document, as applicable, have been sent to the Defendant(s) on the date(s) set forth thereon, and the temporary stay as provided by said notice has terminated because Defendant(s) has/have failed to meet with the Plaintiff or an authorized consumer credit counseling agency, or has/have been denied assistance by the Pennsylvania Housing Finance Agency. WHEREFORE, PLAINTIFF demands an in rum Judgment against the Defendant(s) in the sum of $52,588.82, together with interest from 11/19/2009 at the rate of $10.11 per diem to the date of Judgment, and other costs and charges collectible under the mortgage and for the foreclosure and sale of the mortgaged property.
