My home was auctioned last mth and I was served with a detainer to appear in court for damages to the property today. Can he do this? Nothing has been done to the property since it has been auctioned. And what was done was when I owned the home... I am still residing in the home I have not received any papers to vacate the premises. However I am moving in 2 weeks. How can the lender charge me with rent and damages on something I owned..
Also if I am going to be charged with a forcloser on my credit I will eventually have to pay back. Wouldn't this be double jep. In the legal system once he hits me with the forcloser?

Can "he" do this? Who is "he"? Apparently he can do this because he has. Tax foreclosure or mortgage foreclosure?

You may have been served in order to guarantee you are out and don't stay there beyond the deadline.

Foreclosure?

This doesn't make a lot of sense -

Because, evidently, he owns it now. If you don't own it, you can't expect to live in indefinitely free of charge.

No, your paying the deficiency is not a foregone conclusion. Getting a judgment and collecting it are definitely two different things.

And no, it's not double jeopardy. That is a criminal law concept, and has no application to your situation.

If you damaged the property or looted it prior to the auction but once foreclosure proceedings started then yes the person who bought it at auction or the lender can sue for those damages.

And as, noted, once the property was auctioned, if you continue to reside there, you can be charged rent.
