Real property — Foreclosure sale — Ratification denial
Dominion Rental Holdings, LLC (“Dominion”), the appellant, purchased a condominium unit in Baltimore City at a foreclosure sale. The Substitute Trustee, Shannon Menapace, Esq., the appellee, timely reported the sale to the Circuit Court for Baltimore City. Over two months later, the circuit court denied ratification of the sale because the report of sale did not include the unit number for the property. Within days of the denial of ratification, the Governor declared a State of Emergency due to the COVID-19 pandemic and, soon after, residential foreclosure cases were stayed subject to an administrative order issued by the Chief Judge of the Court of Appeals.
