Questão jurídica principal
Whether a new valuation had to be obtained before fixing the auction date in a mortgage foreclosure sale.
Decisão extraída
No. In mortgage foreclosure, there is no automatic right to a second valuation; a renewed review is required only if changed circumstances affecting value are shown.
Fundamentação extraída
The court distinguished foreclosure from ordinary seizure proceedings, where a double valuation regime applies. In foreclosure, only one appraisal is mandatory, and a further review is justified solely by changed property value circumstances. No such change was substantiated here.
