  • Bill would prohibit a person from taking any action to foreclosure on a residential real property while a state or locally declared state of emergency related to the COVID-19 virus is in effect and until 91 days after the state of emergency has ended, including but not limited to, causing or conducting the sale of the real property or submitting for recordation a notice of default.​
