This area of law is Real Estate and Real Property and can also be considered as Consumer Law. Banks who hold the mortgage typically file foreclosure actions against anyone who could have an interest in the property. People who have an interest could include tenants, spouses, other banks, leinholders, etc. If you hold the deed to the property, the mortgage holder (the Bank) would probably name you in the Complaint in order to quiet title against you.
