CURE - A remedy might be made prior to the foreclosure sale only by certain people/entities who have a legal right to cure the default on the mortgage or Deed of Trust. If a residential or commercial property owner (or other legally-entitled individual) believes they can bring the past-due payments existing (plus all fees and costs of the lender, lending institution's attorney, and Public Trustee), they need to submit with the Public Trustee's workplace a Notice of Intent to Cure a minimum of 15 days prior to the scheduled sale date.

If the borrower/owner does NOT appear at the court hearing, the court will think about from the proof provided whether or not there is a sensible likelihood that a default exists and then, if so, will get in an Order Authorizing Sale to permit the foreclosure action to continue. Before the general public Trustee's workplace might offer a residential or commercial property on the foreclosure sale date, it needs to have gotten from the lender's lawyer a signed copy of the Order Authorizing Sale. Any foreclosure sale made without that Order is void.
