First Union Nat'l Bank v. Hufford

In First Union Nat'l Bank v. Hufford (2001), 146 Ohio App. 3d 673, 677, 679-680, 2001 Ohio 2271, 767 N.E.2d 1206, the Third District Court of Appeals reversed the entry of summary judgment in favor of a bank that failed to produce sufficient evidence proving that it was the current note holder. The Third District concluded that the affidavit filed in support of summary judgment contained, "inferences and bald assertions," rather than a, "clear statement or documentation," proving that the original holder of the note and mortgage transferred its interest to First Union. Id. at 678.
