CUMBERLAND COUNTY ATTORNEY REFERRAL CUMBERLAND COUNTY BAR ASSOCIATION CUMBERLAND COUNTY COURTHOUSE 2 LIBERTY AVENUE CARLISLE, PA 17013 (717) 249-3166 (800) 990-9108 File #: 255200 I . Plaintiff is CITIMORTGAGE, INC. 5280 CORPORATE DRIVE MS1011 FREDERICK, MD 21703 2. The name(s) and last known address(es) of the Defendant(s) are: ALEXANDRA C. LEEDY, IN HER CAPACITY AS EXECUTRIX AND DEVISEE OF THE ESTATE OF CONNIE J. LEEDY 1141 NORTH PHEASANT DRIVE, A/K/A 1141 PHEASANT DRIVE NORTH CARLISLE, PA 17013 who is/are the real owner(s) of the property hereinafter described. 3. On 05/18/2009 CONNIE J. LEEDY made, executed and delivered a mortgage upon the premises hereinafter described to MORTGAGE ELECTRONIC REGISTRATION SYSTEMS, INCORPORATED AS A NOMINEE FOR BANK OF ANN ARBOR which mortgage is recorded in the Office of the Recorder of CUMBERLAND County, in Mortgage Instrument No. 200917248. By Assignment of Mortgage recorded 11/30/2010 the mortgage was assigned to PLAINTIFF which Assignment is recorded in Assignment of Mortgage Instrument No. 201034882. 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. 5. The mortgage is in default because monthly payments of principal and interest upon said mortgage due 07/01/2010 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 File #: 255200 by written notice sent to Mortgagor, the entire principal balance and all interest due 6 thereon are collectible forthwith. The following amounts are due on the mortgage: Principal Balance $66,490.89 Interest $1,303.69 06/01/2010 through 10/30/2010 Late Charges through 10/30/2010 $89.30 Escrow Deficit $57.47 TOTAL $67,941.35 7 8. 9. 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. 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. By virtue of the death of William J. Leedy on 07/16/2008, Connie J. Leedy became the sole owner of the mortgaged premises as surviving tenant by the entireties. File #: 255200 10. Mortgagor Connie J. Leedy died on 05/28/2010, leaving a Will dated 09/23/2008. Letters Testamentary were granted to Alexandra C. Leedy on 06/16/2010 in Cumberland County, No. 21-10-0613. Decedent's surviving heir(s) at law and next-of-kin is Alexandra C. Leedy. 11. Plaintiff does not hold the named Defendant(s), Alexandra C. Leedy, personally liable on this cause of action. This action is being brought to foreclose the interest of the said Defendant(s) in the aforesaid real estate only, and the Defendant(s) has/have been named in accordance with the requirements of Pa R.C.P. 1144(a)(2) and 20 Pa.C.S.A. § 301(b). File #: 255200 WHEREFORE, Plaintiff demands an in rem judgment against the Defendant(s) in the sum of $67,941.35, together with interest from 10/30/2010 at the rate of $8.6529 per diem to the date of judgment, and other costs, fees, and charges collectible under the mortgage, including but not limited to attorney fees and costs, and for the foreclosure and sale of the mortgaged property.
