Mortgage Liens Declared Invalid in Central Illinois Bankruptcy Court

08/17/12

A Central Illinois Bankruptcy Court Judge ruled the trustee who oversees administration of a bankruptcy case can avoid mortgage liens that do not comply with an Illinois law that requires the mortgage contain notice of the interest rate, loan amount and maturity due date.  See In re Crane [Crane vs. Richardson, CDIL 11-09067], on appeal to US District Court.
