Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Indiana
I have drafted an answer to an REM Complaint for Foreclosure of Note and Mortgage and reside in Indiana. I have followed the general format of an answer, but wondered if it is acceptable to include the below after responding to each of the allegations by the plaintiff. If this is not correct, how would I go about including this information, as I want to make the judge aware that the arrears have been paid and that the mortgage company informed me that they have reinstated the loan and pulled the account out of foreclosure.
AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSES
Defendant has paid mortgage arrears to Plaintiff and agreed upon a payment plan for fees incurred by Plaintiff. Plaintiff has acknowledged to Defendant that the mortgage loan on the property listed in Complaint was reinstated by Plaintiff on June 23, 2010, and that Plaintiff instructed their counsel to cease any further foreclosure actions.
Wherefore, Defendant having fully answered Plaintiff�s Complaint respectfully requests that Plaintiff�s Complaint be dismissed.

Your request is beyond the nature of this website. It is one thing to ask a general legal question, it is another to ask someone to review a pleading and give an opinion whether a judge would approve it. I suggest that you contact and hire a local attorney to provide you with an answer. There are attorneys who provide a specific item representation.
