Wachesaw Plantation v. Alexander
Annotate this CaseThis action arose out of the foreclosure of a lien for delinquent homeowner association fees. Todd Alexander did not appeal the foreclosure; however, he moved to vacate the resulting sale. Alexander's motion to vacate the sale was denied and Alexander appealed. The Court of Appeals dismissed the appeal, finding Alexander failed to comply with South Carolina Code section 18-9-170 to stay the sale and, therefore, the master-in-equity's issuance of the deed rendered the appeal moot. “Our jurisprudence establishes that, despite the master-in-equity's issuance of a deed, an appellate court may reach the merits of the appeal.” The Supreme Court reversed and remanded, holding that the issuance of a deed did not moot the appeal of a foreclosure sale and the appellate court here could reach the merits.
