Parties | Arthur J. Morburger, Appellant, v. Yellow Funding Corp., et al., Appellees. |
Court | Florida District Court of Appeals |
Not final until disposition of timely filed motion for rehearing.
Appeals from the Circuit Court for Miami-Dade County, Jose M Rodriguez, Judge. Lower Tribunal No. 19-16332
Arthur J. Morburger, in proper person.
Michel O. Weisz, P.A., and Michel O. Weisz, for appellees.
Before EMAS, LINDSEY and LOBREE, JJ.
In this consolidated appeal, we review the final judgment of foreclosure against Arthur J. Morburger in favor of Yellow Funding Corp. ("Yellow Funding") and a postjudgment order overruling Morburger's objections to the foreclosure sale and directing the clerk of court to issue a certificate of title. We find no merit in the claims raised by Morburger and affirm both orders.
As to the final judgment, Morburger contends that the operative complaint should have been dismissed because Yellow Funding was administratively dissolved and was therefore not authorized to pursue the foreclosure action against him under section 607.1405, Fla. Stat. (2019). We reject this argument and reaffirm our alignment with the holding of our sister court in Hock v. Triad Guaranty Ins. Corp., 292 So.3d 37, 39 (Fla. 2d DCA 2020), that the right to wind up under section 607.1405 "applies equally to corporations that are voluntarily dissolved and to corporations that are administratively dissolved." See New Life Rehab Med Ctr. v. Mercury Ins. Co. of Fla., No. 3D21-112, 2021 WL 3745213 (Fla. 3d DCA Aug. 25, 2021) ( )(quoting Hock 292 So.3d at 41).
We also affirm the trial court's postjudgment order overruling Morburger's objections to the foreclosure sale and directing the clerk to issue the certificate of title. See § 45.031, Fla. Stat. (2020); Phoenix Holding, LLC v. Martinez, 27 So.3d 791 (Fla. 3d DCA 2010) (...
