What happened
The First Circuit ruled on October 26, 2026, that U.S. Bank Trust, N.A. cannot proceed with a foreclosure on a home in Blue Hill, Maine. The court affirmed a lower court decision favoring the homeowners. The bank's pre-foreclosure notice was found to be flawed because it listed the principal balance under the heading "Payments" instead of "Principal".
