California Supreme Court Addresses Foreclosed Borrower's Standing to Sue for Wrongful Foreclosure

Mark Kenney and Kerry Franich of the Severson & Werson firm assess the impact of the California Supreme Court's February 18, 2016 decision in Yvanova v. New Century Mortgage Co.

Mark and Kerry's report is attached below.
