In re Jenkins

Ruling
Debtor's plan could cure mortgage default where foreclosure sale was complete but deed had not been delivered or recorded.
Procedural posture

A bankruptcy debtor proposed a plan which provided for cure of the debtor's mortgage arrearage under 11 U.S.C.S. § 1322(c)(1) since a foreclosure sale of the debtor's residence was not finalized prior to the debtor's bankruptcy. The debtor's mortgage creditor objected to confirmation of the debtor's plan on the ground that Ark. Code Ann. § 18-50-101(8) (2003) deemed the property sold when the highest bid was accepted which was pre-bankruptcy.
