FACTUAL ALLEGATIONS
22. Mr. Foox purchased the home at 58 Darcey Avenue in the Willowbrook section of
Staten Island, New York, that is the subject of this foreclosure action in August 2000. He lives
in the home with his wife and their two adult children.
23. Mr. Foox took out the $81,000 mortgage loan that is the subject of this action in
September 2005 from E-Loan. It was a second mortgage; Mr. Foox had entered into a
consolidation, extension, and modification agreement mortgage with another lender in April
2005.
24. In or around 2007, periodic statements relating to the subject mortgage ceased to
be delivered to Mr. Foox. From 2007 until around the time this action was commenced, he did
not receive any communications from any entity regarding the subject mortgage.
25. On information and belief, efforts to collect on the subject mortgage ceased, and
for some fourteen years no efforts were made to enforce the subject mortgage or to even
communicate with Mr. Foox about it because—due to the 2007-2008 collapse of the housing
market and the failure of the secondary market in residential mortgage debt driven by risky
investment and mortgage loan underwriting practices, from which the global financial crisis
ensued—Mr. Foox’s home’s value had dropped, and the subject mortgage became wholly or
partially unsecured.
26. For all the years during which the entity or entities that owned the subject

NYSCEF DOC. NO. 46 RECEIVED NYSCEF: 02/03/2023
mortgage loan chose to take no collection or enforcement action—creating and reinforcing the
reasonable impression that the loan had been forgiven and/or discharged—interest and other
charges continued to accrue, unbeknownst to Mr. Foox, who received no notice about the
growing debt.
27. On information and belief, the subject mortgage loan matured on or about
October 1, 2020, per the terms of the mortgage (see Exhibit B to the Complaint, NYSCEF Doc.
No. 1).
28. The terms of the subject mortgage required the lender to send any notices required
under the mortgage to be mailed to Mr. Foox by certified mail. (Id., at ¶ 15.)
29. The terms of the subject mortgage provide that any foreclosure action by the
lender must be preceded by at least thirty days by provision of a notice to the borrower notifying
him of the promise or agreement he failed to keep, of the action he must take to cure the default,
nature of the default, of the date by which he must correct it, that the lender may call the debt
payable in full, and enforce it by commencing and prosecute a lawsuit for foreclosure and sale,
of the right of the borrower to obtain a discontinuance of a foreclosure action if he cures the
default, and of the borrower’s right to raise any defenses he may have to such action. (Id., at
¶ 20.)
30. Mr. Foox did not receive any notice such as the one required under paragraph 20
of the subject mortgage prior to the commencement of this action.
31. Mr. Foox did not receive a “90-Day Notice” as required by section 1304 of New
York’s Real Property Actions and Proceedings Law prior to the commencement of this action.
32. Prior to being served with papers in this action, Mr. Foox had never received any
communication from plaintiff Gulf Harbour Investments Corporation (GHIC).

NYSCEF DOC. NO. 46 RECEIVED NYSCEF: 02/03/2023
33. Upon information and belief, GHIC’s business involves purchasing second
mortgage loans that became partially or wholly unsecured, and thereafter seeking to collect such
debt and enforce such mortgages after the value of the real property collateral increased to the
point that the loans are secured—often many years after previous efforts to collect the debt had
ceased.
34. This course of conduct tended to create the impression, and in Mr. Foox’s case
did create the impression, that the debt had been written off or discharged.
35. Upon information and belief, GHIC, incorporated and with its principal place of
business in the state of Florida, is the assignee of approximately two hundred mortgages in New
York City’s five boroughs alone.
FIRST AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSE
Lack of Standing
36. Defendant realleges and incorporates all of the foregoing facts and allegations
contained in Paragraphs 1 through 35 as if fully set forth herein.
37. Upon information and belief, Plaintiff, was not the legal owner of the note and
mortgage and did not otherwise have the right to enforce the mortgage at the time it commenced
this action.
38. Plaintiff therefore lacks standing to prosecute this action, and the complaint must
therefore be dismissed.
SECOND AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSE
Failure to State a Cause of Action
39. Defendant realleges and incorporates all of the foregoing facts and allegations

NYSCEF DOC. NO. 46 RECEIVED NYSCEF: 02/03/2023
contained in Paragraphs 1 through 38 as if fully set forth herein.
40. Plaintiff has failed to plead facts entitling it to a judgment of foreclosure, in that it
has failed adequately to plead a default.
41. Because Plaintiff fails to state a cause of action, the complaint must be dismissed
in its entirety.
THIRD AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSE
Statute of Limitations
42. Defendant realleges and incorporates all of the foregoing facts and allegations
contained in Paragraphs 1 through 41 as if fully set forth herein.
43. The limitations period for a mortgage foreclosure in New York State is six years,
and begins to run at the time a lender elects to accelerate the mortgage loan.
44. On information and belief, this loan was accelerated more than six years before
the commencement of this action.
45. Plaintiff is barred from collecting payments that came due more than six years
before this action was commenced.
46. Because this action was commenced after the expiration of the limitations period,
Plaintiff’s claims and causes of actions are barred in their entirety and/or as to each and every
time-barred payment.
FOURTH AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSE AND FIRST COUNTERCLAIM
Breach of Contract
47. Defendant realleges and incorporates all of the foregoing facts and allegations
contained in Paragraphs 1 through 42 as if fully set forth herein.

NYSCEF DOC. NO. 46 RECEIVED NYSCEF: 02/03/2023
48. The terms of the subject mortgage require, inter alia, that the lender mail any
notice concerning the mortgage—including, but not limited to, a notice of default and the
opportunity to cure it, by certified mail.
49. No such notice was mailed to Mr. Foox, in violation of the mortgage contract.
50. Had such notice been provided to Mr. Foox, Mr. Foox would have had known of
the existence of the purported debt and GHIC’s intention to enforce the mortgage, and would
have had a reasonable opportunity to resolve the default without the need for judicial
intervention and generation of legal fees and costs and related expenses, not to mention
psychological and emotional distress.
51. For reason of this breach, the complaint should be dismissed, and compensatory
damages awarded to Mr. Foox.
FIFTH AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSE
Failure of Condition Precedent: Notice of Default
52. Defendant realleges and incorporates all of the foregoing facts and allegations
contained in Paragraphs 1 through 51 as if fully set forth herein.
53. Plaintiff failed to comply with the requirements for the notice of default in
Defendant’s mortgage loan agreement, a condition precedent to this foreclosure action.
54. Because Plaintiff failed to meet a condition precedent, the complaint must be
dismissed in its entirety.

EIGHTH AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSE AND SECOND COUNTERCLAIM
Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act Early Intervention Requirement
(12 C.F.R. § 1024.39)
61. Defendant realleges and incorporates all of the foregoing facts and allegations
contained in Paragraphs 1 through 60 as if fully set forth herein.
62. On January 10, 2014, 12 C.F.R. § 1024.39, a federal rule of the Consumer
Financial Protection Bureau implementing the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, took
effect.
63. This rule, which was applicable to Plaintiff’s loan servicer, required the servicer
(1) to attempt to establish live contact with Defendants within 36 days of their delinquency to

NYSCEF DOC. NO. 46 RECEIVED NYSCEF: 02/03/2023
inform Defendants about the availability of loss mitigation options and (2) to send Defendants a
written notice within 45 days of the delinquency that included contact information for the
servicer, a description of loss mitigation options available from the servicer, information about
applying for loss mitigation, and a website listing housing counselors.
64. Upon information and belief, Plaintiff’s loan servicer did not attempt to establish
live contact with Defendants within 36 days of the later of the delinquency and the entry into
force of 12 C.F.R. § 1024.39 to inform Defendants about the availability of loss mitigation
options.
65. Upon information and belief, Plaintiff’s loan servicer did not, within 45 days of
the later of the delinquency and the entry into force of 12 C.F.R. § 1024.39, send Defendants a
written notice that included contact information for the servicer, a description of loss mitigation
options available from the servicer, information about applying for loss mitigation, and a website
listing housing counselors.
66. Had such notice been provided to Mr. Foox by GHIC or by its servicing agent,
Mr. Foox would have had known of the existence of the purported debt and GHIC’s intention to
enforce the mortgage, and would have had a reasonable opportunity to resolve the default
without the need for judicial intervention and generation of legal fees and costs and related
expenses, not to mention psychological and emotional distress.
67. For these reasons, the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act requires dismissal of
the complaint and an award of compensatory damages to Mr. Foox.
NINTH AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSE
Excessive Interest and Fees (C.P.L.R. § 3408(f))
68. Defendant realleges and incorporates all of the foregoing facts and allegations

NYSCEF DOC. NO. 46 RECEIVED NYSCEF: 02/03/2023
contained in Paragraphs 1 through 67 as if fully set forth herein.
69. During the period of approximately fourteen years during which Plaintiff and/or
its predecessors in interest failed to communicate about the mortgage with Mr. Foox, creating the
impression that the debt had been written off and/or discharged, Mr. Foox was not only deprived
of the opportunity to negotiate a resolution to the purported default, but was also not informed of
the interest and fees that were continuing to accumulate.
70. This failure to negotiate in good faith has caused excessive interest and fees to
accrue which Plaintiff, as a matter of equity and by operation of New York’s Civil Practice Law
and Rules, is not entitled to the extraordinary relief of foreclosure it seeks in this action.
TENTH AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSE
Excessive Interest (C.P.L.R. § 5001(a))
71. Defendant realleges and incorporates all of the foregoing facts and allegations
contained in Paragraphs 1 through 70 as if fully set forth herein.
72. Plaintiff has unreasonably engaged in dilatory conduct causing excessive interest
to accrue which the Court may reduce or toll, as a matter of equity and pursuant to New York’s
Civil Practice Law and Rules § 5001(a), requiring dismissal of the action.
ELEVENTH AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSE
Laches
73. Defendant realleges and incorporates all of the foregoing facts and allegations
contained in Paragraphs 1 through 72 as if fully set forth herein.
74. Plaintiff unreasonably neglected to assert a claim for relief against Mr. Foox, and
Mr. Foox was not on notice about the existence of this defense.

75. It would be prejudicial in the extreme for Plaintiff, after its fourteen years of
neglect, to be awarded relief in the form of foreclosure upon Mr. Foox’s home.
76. Accordingly, the complaint should be dismissed in its entirety.
TWELFTH AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSE AND THIRD COUNTERCLAIM
Truth In Lending Act (15 U.S.C. §§ 1640 & 1601, and 12 C.F.R. § 1026.41)
77. Defendant realleges and incorporates all of the foregoing facts and allegations
contained in Paragraphs 1 through 76 as if fully set forth herein.
78. Plaintiff, a provider of consumer credit, has failed to provide periodic mortgage
statements, in violation of the Truth in Lending Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1601, and the regulations
promulgated thereunder (“Regulation Z”), 12 C.F.R. § 1026.41.
79. Defendant seeks recoupment pursuant to 15 U.S.C. § 1640, and dismissal of the
complaint.
THIRTEENTH AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSE AND FOURTH COUNTERCLAIM
Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (15 U.S.C. § 1692g)
80. Defendant realleges and incorporates all of the foregoing facts and allegations
contained in Paragraphs 1 through 79 as if fully set forth herein.
81. Plaintiff, a provider of consumer credit, failed to provide Mr. Foox with a debt
validation notice prior to the commencement of this action, in violation of the Fair Debt
Collection Practices Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1692g.
82. Had such notice been provided to Mr. Foox by GHIC or by its servicing agent,
Mr. Foox would have had known of the existence of the purported debt and GHIC’s intention to

enforce the mortgage, and would have had a reasonable opportunity to resolve the default
without the need for judicial intervention and generation of legal fees and costs and related
expenses, not to mention psychological and emotional distress.
83. For reason of Plaintiff’s unfair debt collection practices, the complaint should be
dismissed in its entirety, and Mr. Foox is entitled to compensatory damages.
FOURTEENTH AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSE AND FIFTH COUNTERCLAIM
New York State General Business Law § 349
(the “Deceptive Practices Act”)
84. Defendant realleges and incorporates all of the foregoing facts and allegations
contained in Paragraphs 1 through 83 as if fully set forth herein.
85. New York State General Business Law § 349 states that “deceptive acts or
practices in the conduct of any business, trade or commerce or in the furnishing of any service in
this state are hereby declared unlawful.”
86. Plaintiff “conducted a business” and/or “furnished a service” as those terms are
defined in New York State General Business Law § 349 (the “Deceptive Practices Act”).
Specifically, on information and belief, Plaintiff has acquired by assignment hundreds of
mortgages, including approximately two hundred in the five boroughs of New York City alone.
87. Plaintiff violated the Deceptive Practices Act by engaging in acts and practices
that were misleading in a material way, unfair, deceptive, and contrary to public policy and
generally recognized standards of business.
88. These practices and acts include lulling consumers into believing that their
mortgage debt had been written off and/or discharged, thereby depriving consumers of the
opportunity to negotiate resolutions to any default before the accumulation of excess interest and
13

NYSCEF DOC. NO. 46 RECEIVED NYSCEF: 02/03/2023
fees made such resolution untenable, and demanding payment that was not owed because time-
barred.
89. As a result of Plaintiff’s actions, a reasonable consumer would have been led to
believe that they owed Plaintiff the stated sum, and Mr. Foox was in fact misled.
90. As a result of Plaintiff’s deceptive acts and practices, Defendant suffered extreme
emotional distress and anxiety.
91. Plaintiff’s practices, as described above, have had and may continue to have a
broad impact on consumers throughout New York State.
92. Plaintiff is therefore liable to Defendant for actual and treble damages, as well as
reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs.
SIXTH COUNTERCLAIM

93. Defendant realleges and incorporates all of the foregoing facts and allegations
contained in Paragraphs 1 through 92 as if fully set forth herein.
94. Mr. Foox is in possession of his property, and Plaintiff is not in possession
thereof.
95. On information and belief, the period allowed by the applicable statute of
limitations for the commencement of an action to foreclose Mr. Foox’s mortgage has expired.
96. Pursuant to section 1501(4) of New York’s Real Property Actions and
Proceedings Law, due to the expiration of the time period for commencing an action to foreclose
the subject mortgage, the mortgage should be cancelled and discharged of record, Mr. Foox’s
interest in his home should be adjudged and declared to be free from the mortgage, and Plaintiff
should be required to record a satisfaction of mortgage.

contained in Paragraphs 1 through 96 as if fully set forth herein.
98. The subject mortgage provides for the lender to “collect all costs and expenses of
the foreclosure and sale as allowed by law.”
99. By the same token, if he prevails and the complaint is dismissed, Mr. Foox is
entitled to recover costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, under the implied covenant
established by Real Property Law § 282.
