In foreclosure, ownership is transferred through which court-related process?

• A. Ownership Court
• B. Probate Court
• C. Civil Court
• D. Municipal Court

Answer: (A)

When foreclosure is handled through the courts, the transfer of ownership occurs via a civil court-ordered sale. The lender files a lawsuit in civil court, the court issues a judgment of foreclosure and schedules a sale, and the buyer receives title by deed once the sale is completed and recorded. Other courts like Probate or Municipal courts aren’t the venues for foreclosures, and an so-called “Ownership Court” isn’t a standard part of foreclosure proceedings.
