Georgia Court of Appeals
Virgil Humphrey, Sr. v. Jp Morgan Chase Bank, N. A. et al..
A16A0289
June 8, 2016
Affirmed In Part/Reversed In Part
Automated case summary
What the court decided
The Georgia Court of Appeals held that while it affirmed summary judgment for M&B on certain claims, it reversed the dismissal of Humphrey’s claims against Chase because he was alleging wrongful attempted foreclosure rather than wrongful foreclosure. The court determined that since no foreclosure sale had occurred, a claim for wrongful foreclosure could not succeed, and the trial court erred in granting summary judgment to M&B on those specific grounds.
