Samuel Evans and Sandra Evans v. MC & J Investments, LLC

Summary

The court affirmed the denial of the Evanses’ request to set aside a foreclosure sale. It held that an alleged oral promise to sell the property back to Samuel was unenforceable because the Evanses failed to prove reliance sufficient to invoke promissory estoppel. It also held that the foreclosure bid did not shock the conscience because the Evanses failed to establish the property’s fair market value at the time of sale and the evidence supported the property’s severely deteriorated condition.
