Citation: Wyo. Stat. § 34-4-104

Section: 34-4-104

34-4-104 of a mortgage foreclosure sale.

(ii) "Interested person" means any holder of a certificate of purchase or certificate of redemption issued pursuant to W.S. 1-18-102 and 1-18-106 or any owner of the property by virtue of a sheriff's or public trustee's deed or person claiming through such owner.

(b) The interest of an omitted party in the property which is the subject of a mortgage foreclosure, execution or sheriff's or trustee's sale may be terminated in a civil action commenced by any interested person if the omitted party is afforded rights of redemption upon terms as the district court for the district in which the property is located may deem just under the circumstances, which terms shall not, however, be more favorable than the person's statutory rights had the person been provided notice of the sale.

(c) For purposes of this section, the mortgage, judgment or other lien which is the subject of the sale shall not be extinguished by merger with the title to the property acquired upon issuance and delivery of the sheriff's deed until the interest of any omitted party has been terminated as provided in subsection (b) of this section or by operation of law. 1-18-115. Rescission of foreclosure sale.

(a) A judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure sale may be rescinded in accordance with this section at any time after the sale but before the sheriff's deed has been recorded.

(b) If the purchaser at the foreclosure sale was the foreclosing mortgagee, then the foreclosing mortgagee may rescind the sale for any reason by executing and recording a notice of foreclosure sale rescission in the office of the county clerk of the county where the real estate is located.

(c) If the purchaser at the foreclosure sale was not the foreclosing mortgagee, then the foreclosing mortgagee and the certificate holder may agree to rescind the foreclosure sale for any reason. In order to rescind such a foreclosure sale, the foreclosing mortgagee shall refund to the certificate holder either an amount agreed upon by the foreclosing mortgagee and the certificate holder, or the foreclosure sale bid amount plus ten percent (10%) interest per annum, calculated daily. In addition, both the foreclosing mortgagee and the certificate holder shall execute a notice of foreclosure sale rescission which shall be recorded in the office of the county clerk of the county where the real estate is located.

(d) If the purchaser at the foreclosure sale was not the foreclosing mortgagee, and the certificate holder will not agree to rescind the foreclosure sale, then the foreclosing mortgagee may still rescind the sale if the statutory requirements for the foreclosure sale were not fulfilled or if the foreclosure sale did not comply with applicable federal or state law. In order to rescind such a foreclosure sale, the foreclosing mortgagee shall refund to the certificate holder the purchase price, plus ten percent (10%) interest per annum, calculated daily, and the foreclosing mortgagee shall execute and record a notice of foreclosure sale rescission in the office of the county clerk of the county where the real estate is located which shall recite that the foreclosure sale is being rescinded pursuant to this subsection. The refund of the certificate holder's bid amount, plus interest, shall be the certificate holder's only remedy notwithstanding any other provision of law.

(e) Upon recording a notice of foreclosure sale rescission:

(i) The mortgage and power of sale which are the subject of the rescinded sale are revived and the mortgage may be properly foreclosed in a subsequent foreclosure sale in compliance with applicable law, and all junior liens and rights of junior lienholders are revived with the same lien priority as if no foreclosure sale had taken place;

(ii) The certificate of sale is rendered null and void as if no foreclosure sale had taken place; and

(iii) The mortgagor's indebtedness to the foreclosing mortgagee and all evidence thereof are revived as of the date of the foreclosure sale and as if no certificate of sale had been issued, or as otherwise agreed to by the mortgagor and mortgagee.
