FAILURE TO PROVIDE APPROPRIATE AFFIDAVITS MAY RESULT IN MANDATORY PERSONAL ATTENDANCE OF AN AFFIANT FOR A HEARING, THE IMPOSITION OF SANCTIONS AND PENALTIES FOR PERJURY OR CONTEMPT, AND DISMISSAL OF THE CASE. BEFORE JUDGMENT IS ENTERED ON ANY CLAIM FOR FORECLOSURE AND/OR MONEY JUDGMENT IN A RESIDENTIAL MORTGAGE FORECLOSURE CASE, COUNSEL FOR PLAINTIFF AND ANY OTHER PARTY THAT ASSERTS A CLAIM FOR FORECLOSURE OR MONEY JUDGMENT MUST FILE AN AFFIDAVIT OR AFFIDAVITS. IN REGARD TO NON-MILITARY CLIENT AFFIDAVITS, THIS AFFIDAVIT MUST: 1) IDENTIFY THE COUNSEL OF RECORD AND HIS OR HER LAW FIRM. 2) PROVIDE THAT THE COUNSEL OF RECORD HAS REVIEWED THE FILE. 3) PROVIDE THAT THE COUNSEL OF RECORD HAS COMMUNICATED WITH A REPRESENTATIVE OF THE PARTY SEEKING FORECLOSURE AND/OR MONEY JUDGMENT OR ITS SERVICER AND THAT THIS REPRESENTATIVE: HAS AFFIRMED THAT HE OR SHE HAS PERSONALLY REVIEWED THE DOCUMENTS, RECORDS, OR OTHER DATA RELATED TO THE CASE; HAS REVIEWED THE PLEADINGS AND OTHER COURT FILINGS IN THE CASE; AND HAS CONFIRMED BOTH THE FACTUAL ACCURACY OF THE PLEADINGS AND COURT FILINGS AND THE ACCURACY OF THE NOTARIZATIONS CONTAINED THEREIN. 4) PROVIDE THE FULL NAME OF THE REPRESENTATIVE DESCRIBED IN ITEM 3 AND THE DATE OR DATES OF THE COMMUNICATION. 5) CERTIFY THAT, TO THE BEST OF THE COUNSEL OF RECORD'S KNOWLEDGE, THE PLEADINGS AND OTHER COURT FILINGS IN SUPPORT OF THE CLAIMS FOR FORECLOSURE ARE COMPLETE AND ACCURATE IN ALL RELEVANT RESPECTS. 6) ACKNOWLEDGE THAT COUNSEL OF RECORD HAS A CONTINUING OBLIGATION TO AMEND AND SUPPLEMENT THE AFFIDAVIT IN LIGHT OF NEWLY DISCOVERED FACTS FOLLOWING ITS FILING. 7) BE SIGNED AND DATED BY COUNSEL OF RECORD.

FAILURE TO SUBMIT AN APPROPRIATE AFFIDAVIT ON OR BEFORE THE DATE OF TRIAL, THE DATE THAT A MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT IS RIPE FOR RULING, OR THE DATE OF DEFAULT HEARING, WHICHEVER IS APPLICABLE, WILL RESULT IN DISMISSAL OF THE CASE AND MAY RESULT IN FURTHER SANCTIONS. STANDARDIZED AFFIDAVIT FORMS ARE POSTED ON THE CUYAHOGA COUNTY COURT OF COMMONPLEAS WEBSITE HTTP://CP.CUYAHOGACOUNTY.US/INTERNET/COURTDOCS/MAGISTRATES/AFFIDAVIT (REV5).PDF.
