Ex Parte Reynolds

This is a petition for writ of mandamus.

The underlying lawsuit involves a house located in Homewood, Alabama, which was purchased by John M. Reynolds from Frances and Herbert Birnbaum and Alice and Robert Bolick (respondents). That property was sold at a foreclosure sale after Reynolds defaulted in payment to respondents. Reynolds filed suit contending he was not provided with notice of the sale as is required by § 6-8-66, Code 1975. He requested that the mortgage foreclosure be declared invalid or void, or, in the alternative, that he be allowed to redeem the property.
