Mississippi Court Of Appeals Addresses Mortgage Foreclosure Notice Requirements To Heirs Of Deceased Borrower. 03.02.2010.

In Thomas v. First Federal Bank For Savings, No. 2009-CA-00442-COA, the Mississippi Court Of Appeals confirmed Mississippi law does not require a trustee to notify a mortgagor (or his heirs)of a foreclosure citing Mississippi Code Annotated Section 89-1-55 (Rev. 1999), but instead only requires the posting and publication of the notice of sale. See Leininger v. Merchs. & Farmers Bank, Macon, 481 So. 2d 1086, 1090 (Miss. 1986) where Section 89-1-55 was held to be constitutional. 03.02.2010.
