Manuel C. Perez and Theresa Perez v. Deutsche Bank National Trust Company
District Court of Appeal of Florida

1Opinion of the CourtLevine, J.
Appellants appeal a final judgment of foreclosure, arguing that the Bank lacked standing to foreclose. We agree that the Bank failed to prove that it had standing at the time it filed the complaint. Therefore, we reverse.
In August 2008, Deutsche Bank National Trust Company (“the Bank”) filed a complaint against appellants for mortgage foreclosure. After initiating the lawsuit, the Bank then filed a copy of the note, which listed American Brokers as the lender and contained an undated endorsement in blank. Appellants filed an answer and affirmative defenses, challenging the Bank’s standing.
