Park v. JP Morgan Chase CA4/1
In this wrongful foreclosure case, plaintiffs and appellants Sean Park and Michelle Park alleged causes of action, which, on a number of grounds, challenged defendant and respondent JP Morgan Chase, NA's (Chase) right to pursue foreclosure on a deed of trust the Parks had given to Chase's predecessor in interest, Washington Mutual Bank, FA (WaMu). By way of orders sustaining Chase's demurrer without leave and granting a later motion for summary judgment, the trial court rejected each of the Parks' claims and, in September 2015, entered a judgment in the bank's favor.
The Parks filed a timely notice of appeal; while their appeal has been pending, Chase acquired the home secured by the deed of trust at a June 24, 2016 trustee's sale. Shortly thereafter, the Parks filed a second lawsuit against Chase in which they allege the trustee's sale was wrongful.
