*44MEMORANDUM AND ORDER ON THE PLAINTIFF TRUSTEE’S MOTION TO AMEND THE COMPLAINT

MELVIN S. HOFFMAN, Bankruptcy Judge.

Jonathan Goldsmith, the chapter 7 trustee of the estate of Loucheschi LLC and the plaintiff in this adversary proceeding, has moved to amend the complaint to add a count seeking to void a mortgage held by the defendant LBM Financial, LLC pursuant to Mass. Gen. Laws ch. 260, § 33, commonly referred to as the obsolete mortgage statute.1 The defendants, LBM and Marcello Mallegni, oppose the motion claiming that the amendment would be futile because the mortgage has not lapsed.
