Affect of Foreclosure on 2nd home

I have a mortgage on a house I am now renting out. I also have a mortgage on a house in which I am living.The house I am living in has gone into foreclosure. Can the bank file a judgement for any interest in my rental house, will it be affected at all from foreclosure on my resident house?
