Abstract

Existing law authorizes a service member to apply to the court for relief of an obligation, liability, tax, or assessment, as specified. Existing law authorizes, in the case of an obligation payable under its terms in installments under a contract for the purchase of real estate, or secured by a mortgage or other instrument, as specified, a stay of the enforcement of the obligation during the applicant's period of military service and, from the date of termination of the period of military service or from the date of the application if made after the service, for a period equal to the period of the remaining life of the installment contract or other instrument plus a period of time equal to the period of military service of the applicant or any part of the combined period, as specified. This bill would instead authorize, in the case of an obligation payable in installments under a contract for the purchase of real estate, or secured by a mortgage or other instrument, a deferment of the payments due on the obligation for a period of time equal to the period of military service, as specified. The bill would prohibit penalties from being imposed on the nonpayment of principal or interest during this period and interest from being charged or accumulated on the principal or interest on which the payment was delayed. The bill would also prohibit foreclosure or repossession of property on which payment has been deferred, as specified. The bill would require mortgage payments deferred during this period to be due and payable upon the occurrence of specified conditions. The bill would provide that a service member with a mortgage subject to an impound account for the payment of property taxes, special assessments, and certain insurance shall not be relieved from making monthly payments, as specified, and that a service member shall not be precluded from making payments toward mortgage payments deferred, as specified.
