Supreme Court of Rhode Island
Gerald Degasparre v. Fay Servicing, LLC
February 13, 2023
Summary
The Rhode Island Supreme Court affirmed the Superior Court’s grant of summary judgment to the defendants, upheld the denial of the plaintiff’s motion to amend, and affirmed the denial of motions to strike the defendants’ affidavits. The Court held that the defendants properly mailed the required notice of foreclosure counseling, that the default notice complied with the mortgage’s paragraph 17, and that the plaintiff failed to meet his burden of showing a genuine issue of material fact. The Court also found no abuse of discretion in the lower court’s rulings on the other motions.
