87 Foreclosure extinguishes right of action for mortgage debt etc. (1) On a decree judgment or order absolute for foreclosure the mortgagee shall be deemed to have taken the property mentioned in such decree, judgment or order in full satisfaction of the mortgage debt and his right or equity to bring any action or to take other proceedings for the recovery of the mortgage money from the debtor, surety or other person shall be extinguished and the right or equity of the mortgagor to redeem the said property shall also be extinguished. S. 87(2) amended by No. 18/1989 s. 13(Sch. 2 item 68(a)). (2) In the case of mortgages of land under the **Transfer of Land Act 1958** ***order absolute*** includes an order for foreclosure under the hand of the registrar when recorded on the Register.

(4) This section shall have effect notwithstanding any stipulation to the contrary. No. 3754 s. 88.
