Sixth Circuit: Donald Burniac v. Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.

FRCP

State court default judgment did not bar summary judgment for the other party upon removal to federal court, as the case was removed after the request for summary judgment, but before the formal entry by the clerk.

Federal judgment extinguished the state preliminary injunction; the preliminary injunction did not bar removal.

Statutory irregularities in foreclosure proceeding made proceeding voidable, not void.  No prejudice shown.
