Wages of Law Office of Daniel C.
Consuegra, P.L., Tampa (withdrew

Tampa (substituted as counsel of
record), for Appellant.
Nick Fowler and Sami Thalji of
Stamatakis, Thalji, Bonanno, Tampa,
for Appellee.
KELLY, Judge.
The Bank of New York Mellon appeals from the order dismissing its
foreclosure action against Henry Ruiz based on the Bank's alleged failure to comply
with the notice requirements of paragraph twenty-two of the mortgage. Because the
Bank's letter substantially complied with its notice obligations under the terms of the
mortgage, we reverse and remand for further proceedings. See Green Tree
Servicing, LLC v. Milam,
177 So. 3d 7, 13 (Fla. 2d DCA 2015).
Reversed and remanded.
