This action has been instituted for the purpose of foreclosing the following: Tax Sale Certificate No. 23-00592 issued by the Toms River Township Tax Collector to Trystone Capital Assets LLC dated October 30, 2023 and recorded in the Ocean County Clerk's Office on January 5, 2024 in Official Record Book 19576 at Page 54 etc.; and which lists the assessed owner as "Jackson, Lucy c/o William Kincaid" and affects lands and premises known as Lots 1 and 2 in Block 1082.06 as shown on the tax duplicate of the Township of Toms River (street address: 2202 Fourth Avenue); which tax sale certificate was assigned by Trystone Capital Assets LLC to the plaintiff by Assignment of Tax Sale Certificate dated January 27, 2026 and recorded in the Ocean County Clerk's Office on January 29, 2026 in Official Record Book 20270 at Page 1582 etc. A copy of the plaintiff's Complaint will be provided to you upon request. You and each of you are made defendants in the above titled action because you have, or may claim to have, some right, title, lien or other interest affecting the real estate being foreclosed by virtue of ownership, inheritance, descent, intestacy, devise, legacy, dower, curtesy, mortgage, deed of conveyance, entry of judgment or other legal or lawful right. You are advised of the right to exercise the affirmative defense of surplus equity to this foreclosure action pursuant to Tyler v. Hennepin County, 598 U.S. 631 (2023) and/or New Jersey Statute. Accordingly, the owner or the owner's heirs have the right to demand, in writing to the Superior Court before the date final judgment is entered, that the foreclosure proceed to a judicial sale as in the manner of a foreclosure of a mortgage or (if available) an Internet auction of the premises, through the office of the county sheriff; and, specifically: if the plaintiff's lien is not redeemed, or you do not elect to have this action brought to sheriff's sale, you are at risk of losing your equity in the premises; the potential loss of equity in the premises is a valid basis to contest this action; and you have the right to request a sheriff's sale which would require any surplus beyond the amount due to the plaintiff to be deposited with the Trust Fund of the Superior Court, for which any parties entitled thereto may make application for their appropriate share.
