(b) (C) (1) Before entry of a judgment the landlord shall give written notice of
the pending entry of judgment to each mortgagee of the lease, or any part of the lease,
who before entry of the judgment has recorded in the land records of each county
where the property is located a timely request for notice of judgment. A request for
notice of judgment shall:
(i) Be recorded in a separate docket or book that is indexed
under the name of the mortgagor;
(ii) Identify the property on which the mortgage is held and
refer to the date and recording reference of that mortgage;
(iii) State the name and address of the holder of the mortgage;
and
(iv) Identify the ground lease by stating:
1. The name of the original lessor;
2. The date the ground lease was recorded; and
3. The office, docket or book, and page where the ground
lease is recorded.
(2) The landlord shall mail the notice by certified mail return receipt
requested to the mortgagee at the address stated in the recorded request for notice of
judgment. If the notice is not given, judgment in favor of the landlord does not impair
the lien of the mortgagee. Except as otherwise provided in subsection (C) of this
section, the property is discharged from the lease and the rights of all persons
claiming under the lease are foreclosed unless, within 6 calendar months after
execution of the judgment for possession, the tenant or any other person claiming
under the lease:
(i) Pays the ground rent, arrears, and all costs awarded against
that person; and
(ii) Commences a proceeding to obtain relief from the judgment.
(e) (D) This section does not bar the right of any mortgagee of the lease, or any
part of the lease, who is not in possession at any time before expiration of 6 calendar
months after execution of the judgment awarding the landlord possession, to pay all
costs and damages sustained by the landlord and to perform all the covenants and
agreements that are to be performed by the tenant.
