Chimento v. Fuller

Mississippi Supreme Court

Decided September 27, 2007No. 2006-CA-01494-SCT, 2001-IA-00057-SCTPublishedCited by 6 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

¶ 1. This case involves the distribution of proceeds from a court-ordered sale of 31.3 acres of land located in Pearl River County, Mississippi, and whether the statute of limitations applies to a loan creditor. Gerald D. Mills, Sr., seeks the proceeds from a judicial foreclosure sale. Mills, however, never filed a foreclosure action on his $35,000 promissory note to preserve his interest in the real estate as collateral. In addition, Mills never filed suit on the note to preserve his monetary interest of $35,000. We find that this case should be reversed and rendered.
