Iowa woman wins foreclosure appeal after lender failed to notify co-owner

 In a landmark decision, the Iowa Supreme Court determined that Lynae D McMillen Dickey Tesdall, a co-owner of a property, must receive notice before any foreclosure actions can proceed. Despite not signing the promissory note, she was listed as a borrower in the mortgage. While absent, missed payments accumulated, and Wells Fargo neglected to inform her of the ongoing overdue amount. In a landmark decision, the Iowa Supreme Court determined that Lynae D McMillen Dickey Tesdall, a co-owner of a property, must receive notice before any foreclosure actions can proceed.
