G. Mokhnach, individually, the marital community of Viktor G. and Larisa N. Mokhnach, and Euro and

The stipulated motion of the parties, docket no. 395, is GRANTED,4 and ING’s
13
claims against defendants (i) Petr Klimenko, individually; (ii) Tatyana Klimenko,

By Minute Order entered on November 23, 2011, docket no. 385, ING was directed to again serve its
motion for voluntary dismissal on the Baydovskiy Defendants. ING filed a certification of service on the
same day the Minute Order was entered. See docket no. 386. No response to ING’s motion has been filed.
The Court treats the Baydovskiy Defendants’ non-opposition as a concession that ING’s claims against them
may be dismissed without prejudice to refiling at a later date. See Minute Order (docket no. 385); see also
Local Rule CR 7(b)(2).

Nationwide Home Lending, LLC was served c/o Alla Sobol at two different addresses in Renton,
Washington. See Certificate of Service (docket no. 380 at 3-4). No response to ING’s motion has been
filed, and the Court has received no indication that the Renton addresses are invalid. The Court therefore
treats ING’s motion for voluntary dismissal as unopposed.

The parties’ stipulation and proposed order to extend time to complete settlement, docket no. 391, is
STRICKEN as moot.

Defendants Wells Fargo & Company and Wells Fargo N.A. (collectively, the “Wells Fargo Defendants”)
were alleged to have junior lienholder interests in the property located at 23916 29th Avenue West in Brier
(the “Brier Property”). Amended Complaint at ¶¶ 45 & 46 (docket no. 105). Wells Fargo N.A. failed to
timely plead or otherwise defend and default was entered on March 24, 2009, docket nos. 56 & 57. Wells
Fargo & Company likewise failed to timely plead or otherwise defend and default was entered on October
19, 2011, docket no. 348. In an earlier Order, dated September 30, 2011, docket no. 334, the Court granted
summary judgment in favor of ING and against both the Wells Fargo Defendants and the Klimenko
Defendants. Because ING and the Klimenko Defendants later reached a settlement, pursuant to which ING
has agreed not to pursue judicial foreclosure of its deed of trust on the Brier Property, the Court sua sponte
VACATES the entries of default as to the Wells Fargo Defendants, docket nos. 56, 57, & 348, as well as the
Order of summary judgment, docket no. 334. ING’s claims against the Wells Fargo Defendants are
DISMISSED without prejudice as moot.

Defendants Irina Piekhotin, aka Irina Lysuk, aka Irinea Piekhotin, individually, and the marital community
of Irina and Vitaliy Piekhotin (the “Piekhotin Defendants”), who were alleged to have a junior lienholder
interest in the property located at 4528 Heron Ridge Drive Northeast in Tacoma (the “Heron Ridge
Property”), see Amended Complaint at ¶ 44 (docket no. 105), failed to timely plead or otherwise defend in
this action, and default was entered against them by Order dated October 19, 2011, docket no. 350. The
judgment shall reflect that the Piekhotin Defendants’ rights, title, and interest in the Heron Ridge Property
are junior to those of ING and are extinguished by foreclosure of ING’s senior deed of trust. Defendants
Keybank, N.A. and Keycorp (collectively, “KeyBank”), which were alleged to have a junior lienholder
interest in the Heron Ridge Property, see Amended Complaint at ¶¶ 42 & 43, stipulated to judicial
foreclosure in favor of ING. See Stipulated FRCP 54(b) Judgment (docket no. 199). For the sake of clarity,
the judgment shall reflect that KeyBank’s rights, title, and interest in the Heron Ridge Property are junior to
those of ING and are extinguished by foreclosure of ING’s senior deed of trust.

(docket no. 105), reconveyed its deed of trust to defendant Kozhevnikov, see Stipulated Motion at ¶ G
(docket no. 388), and ING has already voluntarily dismissed its claims against Westsound Bank, see Notice
(docket no. 245). Defendant Alaska USA Federal Credit Union (“Alaska Credit Union”), which was also
alleged to have a junior lienholder interest in the 9th Avenue Property, see Amended Complaint at ¶ 49,
failed to timely plead or otherwise defend in this action, and default was entered against Alaska Credit Union
by Order dated March 24, 2009, docket nos. 56 & 57. The judgment shall reflect that Alaska Credit Union’s
rights, title, and interest in the 9th Avenue Property are junior to those of ING and are extinguished by

(emphasis added). The address identified in the Amended Complaint appears to contain a typographical
error, and the Court sua sponte modifies the operative pleading to reflect the correct location as 2908 44th
Avenue Northeast in Tacoma (the “44th Avenue Property”). BECU failed to timely plead or otherwise
defend in this action, and default was entered by Order dated March 24, 2009, docket nos. 56 & 57. The
judgment shall reflect that BECU’s rights, title, and interest in the 44th Avenue Property are junior to those
of ING and are extinguished by foreclosure of ING’s senior deed of trust.
9
Defendant Watermark Credit Union (“Watermark”) was alleged to have a junior lienholder interest in
property located at “36030 21st Lane Street” in Federal Way. Amended Complaint at ¶ 47 (docket no. 105)
(emphasis added). The address identified in the Amended Complaint appears to contain a typographical
error, and the Court sua sponte modifies the operative pleading to reflect the correct location as 36030 21st
Lane South in Federal Way (the “21st Lane Property”). By stipulation, a decree of judicial foreclosure was
entered in favor of ING and against Watermark as to the 21st Lane Property, and Watermark was “dismissed
without prejudice as a defendant from this action.” Stipulated FRCP 54(b) Judgment (docket nos. 200 &
201). ING subsequently moved for summary judgment as to Watermark, and its motion was granted by
Order dated November 4, 2011, docket no. 365. To the extent that the language of the Stipulated
FRCP 54(b) Judgment, which was proposed by the parties, is internally inconsistent or is undermined by the
Court’s subsequent Order of summary judgment, the Court clarifies that Watermark stipulated that its rights,
title, and interest in the 21st Lane Property are junior to those of ING and would be extinguished by
foreclosure of ING’s senior deed of trust. ING’s claims against Watermark were resolved on the merits by
such stipulation. As a result, after entry of the Stipulated FRCP 54(b) Judgment, Watermark no longer
needed to participate in the action, and the phrase indicating it was “dismissed” served only to terminate
Watermark’s involvement as a party. In light of Watermark’s earlier stipulation, the judgment shall reflect
that Watermark’s rights, title, and interest in the 21st Lane Property are junior to those of ING and are
extinguished by foreclosure of ING’s senior deed of trust.

community of Tatyana and Igor Kotelevskiy (the “Kotelevskiy Defendants”), judicially

foreclosing the Kotelevskiy Defendants’ right, title, and interest in the real property

DISMISSED with prejudice and without costs;
(11)

Default having been entered as to defendant Emerald City Escrow, LLC, see

8
community of Viktor and Yelena V. Kobzar, and KoBay Financial Corp. (collectively, the
9
“Kobzar Defendants”), see Order (docket no. 349), but ING having failed to timely file a
10
motion for default judgment as to these defendants, as required by the Minute Order entered
11
on November 23, 2011, docket no. 385, ING’s claims against Emerald City Escrow, LLC
12
and the Kobzar Defendants are DISMISSED without prejudice;
(12)
13
The following deeds of trust are foreclosed, and the properties described
14
therein are ordered sold by the sheriff of the county in which such property is located, in the

manner provided by law:

Deed of Trust recorded in the office of the Pierce County Auditor as

In light of the parties’ settlement, the Court sua sponte VACATES the portion of its Order dated April 29,
2011, docket no. 316, granting a deficiency judgment in favor of ING.
11
25
26
In the Amended Complaint, the instrument number is identified as 200806250534, but the document
associated with such number is a statutory warranty deed granted by Irina Piekhotin, aka Irina Lysuk, in favor
of Inna Ruseva. See Amended Complaint at ¶ 132 (docket no. 105); compare https://armsweb.co.
pierce.wa.us/RealEstate/SearchResults.aspx. The Court sua sponte modifies the Amended Complaint to
reflect the correct instrument number, namely 200806250535.

13
The proceeds of the sales of such properties shall be applied to payment of the respective
14
sums due to ING, which is granted the right to become a bidder and purchaser at such sales,
15
with the right to immediate possession of such property. In the event that the proceeds of a
16
sale exceed the sum due to ING from the respective borrower(s), the surplus shall be
17
deposited into the Registry of the Court, and an appropriate motion concerning the
18
disposition of any such amount shall be brought under this cause number. See
19
RCW 61.12.150. The Court is satisfied that the properties identified in the deeds of trust
20
listed above are not used primarily for agricultural or farming purposes, that the borrowers
21
under each deed of trust identified in this paragraph have waived all rights of redemption,
22
12

25
In the Amended Complaint, the instrument is described as having been recorded in the office of the Pierce
County Auditor under number 200805140705, see Amended Complaint at ¶ 174 (docket no. 105); however,
the instrument was in fact recorded in the office of the King County Auditor under number
20080514000705, see http://www.kingcounty.gov/business/Recorders/RecordsSearch.aspx. The Court sua
sponte modifies the Amended Complaint to reflect the correct recording information.

26
Although the Amended Complaint identifies the instrument number as 200803121684, see Amended
Complaint at ¶ 188 (docket no. 105), the copy of the deed of trust attached to the Amended Complaint
reflects the correct instrument number as 20080312001684.
