NY Real Prop Actions L § 1519 (2021)
2021 New York Laws RPA - Real Property Actions and Proceedings Article 15 - Action to Compel the Determination of a Claim to Real Property 1519 - Proceedings.

§  1519.  Proceedings.  1. In an action maintained under this article,   the proceedings shall be governed by  the  provisions  regulating  civil   actions, except as otherwise provided in this article.2.   When  service  of  the  summons  on  any  defendant  is  made  by   publication, the order for such service shall  direct  that  any  papers   required  by  such order to be mailed to such defendant shall be sent by   registered mail, and when such mailing is  required  shall  also  direct   that  an  affidavit,  by or on behalf of the plaintiff, be filed stating   that such papers were mailed as required by such order.3. Whenever a claim of right to immediate possession is in issue,  the   person  in  possession  shall  be  presumed  to  have  the right to such   possession, but such presumption may be rebutted.4. Where any party claims the real property in question, or  any  part   thereof,  by  virtue  of an estate in reversion or in remainder, whether   vested or contingent, and the verdict, report, or decision finds that he   has such an estate, it must specify the time when,  or  the  contingency   upon which, he will be entitled to possession.5.  Where  the  complaint  demands,  as  provided  in subdivision 3 of   section 1515 of this article, that the defendant's dower be  admeasured,   and  the defendant does not, by her answer, set forth facts showing that   she is entitled to a greater  right  of  dower,  or  another  estate  or   interest  in  the  property,  than  that  admitted by the plaintiff, and   demand judgment therefor, as if she were the plaintiff in an action  for   dower,  the  court  must render an interlocutory judgment, directing her   dower to be admeasured, with or without damages for its detention, as in   an action for dower. The subsequent proceedings shall be the same, as if   the defendant had, as plaintiff, recovered an interlocutory judgment  in   an action for dower.

2021 New York Laws RPA - Real Property Actions and Proceedings Article 15 - Action to Compel the Determination of a Claim to Real Property 1522 - Accounting in Certain Cases.

§  1522.  Accounting  in  certain  cases.  In  an action brought under   section 1503 the court shall direct such accounting as justice  requires   in  the circumstances for rents and profits of the property or the value   of the use and occupation during the period subsequent to  the  original   sale or conveyance in lieu of foreclosure during which possession of the   property was held by the plaintiff or by any other party to the action.

2021 New York Laws RPA - Real Property Actions and Proceedings Article 15 - Action to Compel the Determination of a Claim to Real Property 1523 - Judgment of Foreclosure in Certain Cases.

§  1523.  Judgment  of  foreclosure  in certain cases. 1. In an action   under section 1503 if it shall appear to the  court  that  there  was  a   defect  in  the original foreclosure proceedings and such defect was not   occasioned by the fraud or wilful neglect of the plaintiff, the judgment   may foreclose or reforeclose the mortgage pursuant to article 13 of this   chapter, notwithstanding that an action to foreclose the mortgage  would   otherwise  be  barred;  provided,  however,  that  no  recovery shall be   granted for any residue of the debt, remaining unsatisfied, if an action   to foreclose the mortgage would otherwise be barred.2. If it shall appear to the court in any such action that the  defect   in the foreclosure proceedings was not due to fraud or wilful neglect of   the  plaintiff and that the defendant or the person under whom he claims   was not actually prejudiced thereby, the judgment may  fix  a  time  for   redemption  of  the property and provide that a failure to redeem within   such time shall thereafter preclude the  defendant  from  redeeming  the   property or claiming any right, title or interest therein.3.  If  a redemption of the property is ordered, the court must direct   that the value of any improvement to the property made subsequent to the   original sale or conveyance in lieu of foreclosure  shall  be  added  in   computing  the  amount  necessary  to  redeem  the premises, in the same   manner as if the value  of  such  improvements  was  a  portion  of  the   mortgage debt.4.  If a new sale of the premises is ordered, the court may include in   the judgment a provision awarding to the  plaintiff  the  value  of  any   improvements  to  the  property  made subsequent to the original sale or   conveyance in lieu of foreclosure, in the same manner as if the value of   such improvements was a portion of the mortgage debt.5. The relief provided for in subdivision two of  this  section  shall   not be granted unlessa. the mortgage was executed after September 1, 1951, orb. the defendant whose right title or interest will be extinguished by   failure  to  redeem  the  property within the time fixed by the judgment   held such right to redeem only by virtue of a  subordinate  mortgage  or   other  lien,  and  an action to foreclose such right of redemption would   not be barred at the time this act shall take effect.The relief provided for in subdivision four of this section shall  not   be  granted  unless  the improvements were made after September 1, 1951,   except to the extent that a recovery, allowance  or  credit  for  or  on   account  of  the  value of any improvements, including improvements made   prior to the effective date of this act, might be granted, in any  other   action  or proceeding, to the person maintaining the action provided for   in section 1503.
