CITIFINANCIAL MORTG. CO., INC. v. Clark

Greene, J.:

Citifmancial Mortgage Company, Inc., appeals the district court’s refusal to grant relief to it in confirmation proceedings after it failed to participate in a sheriff s sale of property subject to its first mortgage lien in excess of $70,000, resulting in an order confirming the sale to Lorin Gerald Brunsvold for his bid of $6,050. Citifmancial argues the district court failed to exercise its equity powers under K.S.A. 60-2415 as construed by controlling caselaw. We agree, vacate the confirmation order, and remand for further proceedings.
