Judicial Foreclosure Available: Yes
Non-judicial Foreclosure Available: No
Utah recognizes judicial foreclosure. There may be but one
action for recovery of the debt or any foreclosure sale.
Procedure
The lender must file a lawsuit seeking foreclosure. If the
court finds there has been a default, it may order the foreclosure sale to
proceed. The court will also adjudge the amount due on the defaulted loan. The
sheriff will conduct the sale under court order in the same manner as normal
execution sales. The sheriff will publish notices and conduct a public sale.
Any surplus from the sale will go to the person who is owed the money, by court
order, or stay on deposit with the court until it decides how to distribute it.
Special Procedures
The borrower may be restrained by a court injunction from
injuring the real property during the foreclosure of the mortgage or during a
foreclosure execution sale.
Deficiency
Utah allows deficiency judgments. If the foreclosure sale
proceeds are insufficient to pay off the loan balance to the lender, then
execution may be issued by the court after the sale to seize property until the
debt is repaid. Redemption Utah recognizes a right of redemption after the sale
in the same way as for regular judgments. However, a Utah court sitting in
equity may extend the time for redemption so there is no set length of time.
