Supreme Court of Delaware

Coppedge v. US Bank National

November 5, 2014

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed the denial of the Coppedges’ motion to set aside the prior foreclosure judgment and stay the sheriff’s sale. It held that the Coppedges had not shown entitlement to a jury trial, had not established that the mortgage debt was paid or discharged, and had not supported their jurisdictional, note-production, or foreclosure arguments. The Court concluded that the Superior Court acted within its discretion because the prior judgment remained valid and the record showed no basis to disturb it.
