NOTIFICATION OF RIGHTS RELATING TO SURPLUS EQUITY (a) the within action could result in the loss of the property owners' equity in the property; (b) the potential loss of equity is a valid basis for contesting the tax foreclosure; and (c) the property owner has the ability to request a sheriff's sale of the property which would require any surplus beyond the amount owed to be deposited with the Superior Court Trust Fund. NOTICE OF SURPLUS EQUITY AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSE: Pursuant to New Jersey Court Rule 4:64-1c ("Definition of Uncontested Action") any allegation in a responsive pleading to this complaint that a party has existing equity in the property shall be treated as a contesting answer to this tax foreclosure complaint. Pursuant to Tyler v. Hennepin County, 598 U.S. 631, 143 S. Ct. 1369 (2023), a property owner may be entitled to the surplus which would be realized over and above the amount due to the plaintiff lienholder. According to Black's Law Dictionary 657 (10th ed. 2014), "surplus" is "an amount of something that is more than what is required or used." If you believe there is a surplus beyond the amount owed to the plaintiff, you must assert same in a responsive pleading.

BOX 971, TRENTON, NJ 08625-0971, BEFORE THE DATE THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IS ENTERED. IF THE OWNER, OR OWNER'S HEIRS, DEMAND A JUDICIAL SALE, IN A TIMELY MANNER, THE SUPERIOR COURT WILL ORDER THE ENTRY OF A FINAL JUDGMENT AND WRIT OF EXECUTION DIRECTING THAT THE SUBJECT PROPERTY BE SOLD AT A JUDICIAL SALE, AND ANY SURPLUS BEYOND THE AMOUNT OWED ON THE TAX LIEN WILL BE DEPOSITED WITH THE SUPERIOR COURT TRUST FUND.
