Mortgage foreclosure surplus
10 Del. C. §§ 5065–5067 govern mortgage sheriff-sale surplus, and § 5067 requires the officer to render the balance after debt, interest and costs to the owner at sale. Section 5067 sets no fixed owner filing cutoff. Under § 4986, money the sheriff cannot pay may enter court when the recipient is absent, unknown or unable to receive it. A mortgage sale after confirmation conveys free of the mortgagor's equity of redemption under § 5066.
