of the court is necessary for a display advertisement. A cost
estimate must be provided to the Court.

and an affidavit of publication from the newspaper, including the
newspaper ad, must be attached to the Foreclosure By Sale Committee

POST-SALE PROCEDURE
1st paragraph remains as is.
2nd paragraph:
In order for the sale and the
committee’s fees to be approved in the shortest period of time, the
committee is encouraged to efile the Motion for Approval of Sale by
the Wednesday following the sale. All additional motions and
supporting documents (including the Foreclosure by Sale Committee
Report JD-CV-75) must be efiled no later than twelve (12) days after
the efiling of the Motion for Approval of Sale. When the committee
report is filed and there is a deposit with the court, the committee
may request the court’s consideration for an order directing the
plaintiff or the clerk of the court to reimburse expenses and pay
fees within 45 days of the approval of sale. The deed must be in
the form of Foreclosure by Sale Committee Deed, JD-CV-74. Any
deviation must be approved by the court. The Committee should mail
the signed Committee Deed to the court upon the filing of the Motion
for Approval. After the judge approves and signs the deed, the
clerk will scan the deed into the file and return the original deed
to the committee.
