Supreme Court of Rhode Island

Westconnaug Recovery Company, LLC v. U.S. Bank National Association as Trustee for Armt 2007-2

March 17, 2023

Summary

The Rhode Island Supreme Court vacated the judgment granting the bank’s right to redeem the tax‑sale property and also vacated the contempt order against the foreclosing company, holding that the bank failed to include a timely offer to redeem as required by G.L. 1956 § 44‑9‑29 and that the contempt sanction was unsupported because the redemption order had been stayed. The case was remanded for further proceedings on the foreclosing company’s amended petition.
