Supreme Court of South Carolina

ArrowPointe Federal Credit Union v. Jimmy Eugene Bailey

January 11, 2023

Summary

The South Carolina Supreme Court affirmed the Court of Appeals, holding that South Carolina law does not recognize a replacement mortgage doctrine and that the race‑notice statute gives ArrowPointe Federal Credit Union priority over the refinance mortgage because Quicken Loans had record notice of the ArrowPointe lien. The Court also emphasized that adoption of the doctrine is a matter for the General Assembly.
