How long do I have to respond to a foreclosure notice in NY?

When a person is sued for foreclosure, they receive a summons and complaint, and a person has 20 days in which to answer by filing an answer in court. So, you have a 20 day period after the service of a summons and complaint. There are some exceptions that make it a little bit longer, but don't rely on exceptions. Think of 20 days. And that's not 20 business days, it's 20 days. I'm Carl Person. I'm a New York lawyer and my job is to help people stay in their homes.
