AC45065 - Cazenovia Creek Funding I, LLC v. White Eagle Society of Brotherly Help, Inc., Group 315, Polish National Alliance ("The named defendant, The White Eagle
Society of Brotherly Help, Inc., Group 315, Polish
National Alliance, appeals from the judgment of foreclosure by sale rendered by the trial court in favor
of the substitute plaintiff, Benchmark Municipal Tax
Services, Ltd. On appeal, the defendant claims that
the court improperly (1) rendered summary judgment
against it as to liability after determining that the tax
liens for the grand lists of 2012 and 2013 properly were
assigned to the plaintiff and (2) found that the debt
was due to the plaintiff. We affirm the judgment of the
trial court.")
AC45473 - U.S. Bank National Assn. v. Booker ("In this residential mortgage foreclosure action, the defendants Linda Booker and Ulish Booker, Jr., appeal from the trial court’s denial of their motion to open the judgment of strict foreclosure rendered in favor of the plaintiff U.S. Bank National Association as Legal Title Trustee for Truman 2016 SC6 Title Trust. The defendants claim that the court erred in denying their motion to open the judgment because the court improperly decided not to exercise its discretion and afford them relief in connection with the grounds of mistake and fraud raised therein. The plaintiff argues that this court should dismiss the appeal because (1) the defendants’ appeal is moot, as title in the mortgaged property has vested in the plaintiff, and (2) the defendants should not be allowed to raise their claim of error because it could have been raised in the defendants’ prior appeal in this action. The plaintiff also argues that the court did not abuse its discretion in denying the motion to open. We reject the plaintiff’s jurisdictional and reviewability arguments and conclude that the court properly denied the defendants’ motion to open. Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the court.")
