Accredited Home Lenders, Inc. v. Lauver (In Re Lauver)
United States Bankruptcy Court, W.D. Pennsylvania
1Opinion of the Court
MEMORANDUM OPINION
BERNARD MARKOVITZ, Bankruptcy Judge.
Accredited Home Lenders, Inc. seeks to have stricken from the record a mortgage satisfaction piece indicating that a mortgage debtors Paul and Darla Lauver granted it in 2004 was satisfied. It also seeks to have the mortgage reinstated on the record.
The chapter 7 trustees in these cases maintain that because a prospective purchaser of the property subject to the “satisfied mortgage” would qualify as a bona fide purchaser under Pennsylvania law, they are able to avoid the mortgage in accordance with § 544(a)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code.
