On February 13, 2018, the Florida Supreme Court accepted jurisdiction in an appeal emanating from a hot button issue in contested foreclosures – can the borrower in a foreclosure secure an award of contractual attorney’s fees after successfully defending the foreclosure on the basis that the lender lacked standing to enforce the mortgage contract?

On December 11, 2017, in a case entitled In re Iliceto, 1 the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed the district court's decision,2 which held that Nationstar Mortgage, LLC ("Nationstar" or the "Creditor") received notice reasonably calculated under all the circumstances to apprise it that its status as a secured creditor was being challenged by Robert Iliceto ("Iliceto" or the "Debtor") in his Chapter 13 bankruptcy proceeding,3 even though the Debtor did not notify Nationstar that he was objecting to the validity of its mortgage.

O BANCO ESPÍRITO SANTO, S.A. – EM LIQUIDAÇÃO anunciou que o prazo para a apresentação das reclamações de créditos no âmbito do seu processo de liquidação terminará no dia 11 de dezembro de 2017.

O termo do prazo para apresentação de reclamações de crédito é estabelecido em função da última citação de credor no estrangeiro, contando-se 60 dias a partir dessa data. De acordo com o referido comunicado, a mais recente citação conhecida foi efetuada no dia 11 de outubro.

BANCO ESPÍRITO SANTO, S.A. – EM LIQUIDAÇÃO has announced that the time limit for the lodgement of claims under its liquidation proceedings ends on 11 December 2017.

The time limit for lodging claims is set with reference to the last service of notice to a creditor abroad and the 60-day period counted from said date. According to the aforementioned announcement, the last known notice was served on 11 October.

The announcement reserves the possibility of extending the time limit in the event of subsequent services.

Under § 727(a)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code, a court shall not grant a debtor’s discharge if “the debtor has concealed, destroyed, mutilated, falsified, or failed to keep or preserve any recorded information, including books, documents, records, and papers, from which the debtor’s financial condition or business transactions might be ascertained, unless such act or failure to act was justified under all of the circumstances of the case.” To prevail under § 727(a)(3) an objecting party must establish that the debtor has failed to maintain or preserve records.

The Eleventh Circuit has revisited the question of when a debtor may be judicially estopped from pursuing a civil lawsuit due to his or her failure to disclose the claims forming the basis of the lawsuit in their bankruptcy. Judicial estoppel is an equitable doctrine intended to protect courts against parties who seek to manipulate the judicial process by changing their legal positions to suit the exigencies of the moment.
