Third District Court of Appeal State of Florida Opinion filed April 8, 2020. Not final until disposition of timely filed motion for rehearing. ________________ No. 3D19-1779 Lower Tribunal No. 14-10344 ________________ Alexander Moskovits, Appellant, vs. MTGLQ Investors, L.P., Appellee. An Appeal from the Circuit Court for Miami-Dade County, John W. Thornton, Jr., Judge. Alexander Moskovits, in proper person. eXL Legal, PLLC, and Nicole R. Ramirez (St. Petersburg), for appellee. Before SALTER, LOGUE, and LINDSEY, JJ. PER CURIAM. Appellant Alexander Moskovits, pro se, appeals a final judgment of foreclosure and an order denying his motion for leave to amend to assert a counterclaim and crossclaim for fraud in the inducement. We affirm. Moskovits raises two arguments. First, he argues that final summary judgment was improper because Appellee MTGLQ Investors, LP failed to prove standing. We disagree. Based on the record before us, a copy of the note with a blank endorsement was attached to the verified foreclosure complaint. This was sufficient to establish standing to bring the foreclosure action. See U.S. Bank, N.A. v. Zayas, 44 Fla. L. Weekly D2695 (Fla. 3d DCA 2019) (citing HSBC Bank USA, N.A. v. Buset, 241 So. 3d 882 (Fla. 3d DCA 2018)); PNC Bank, N.A. v. Clark, 211 So. 3d 265 (Fla. 3d DCA 2017). Moskovits also argues the trial court abused its discretion in denying his motion to amend. A review of the record discloses no such error. After five years of pre-trial motions and three separate and unsuccessful attempts to file a legally sufficient counterclaim, Moskovits’s last motion to amend simply came too little and too late. We therefore affirm both the trial court’s entry of final judgment of foreclosure and the order denying Moskovits’s motion to amend. Affirmed. 2
