Before: D.W. NELSON, TASHIMA, and CALLAHAN, Circuit Judges.
Appellant Karen Moore closed on the refinance of two mortgage loans with
appellee ING Bank FSB (“ING”) on November 19, 2007. She claims the Notices
of Right to Cancel she received at closing were defective in that they did not meet

the requirements of the Truth in Lending Act (“TILA”), 15 U.S.C. § 1635.
Specifically, the notices allegedly were not signed and did not have the dates filled
in showing the beginning and ending of the period of her right to cancel the loans.
Pursuant to 15 U.S.C. § 1635(f), the normally three-day period for cancellation is
extended to three years when the notice provided to the borrower does not meet
TILA’s requirements. Moore sent written notice of rescission to ING on
September 13, 2010. Moore filed suit under TILA on January 10, 2011.
Where the lender provides defective notice of the right to rescind a loan, the
borrower’s right to rescind terminates three years after the consummation of the
loan. 15 U.S.C. § 1635(f); McOmie-Gray v. Bank of Am. Home Loans, 667 F.3d
1325, 1329 (9th Cir. 2012). This is true even if the borrower had provided the
lender notice of the rescission prior to the expiration of the three-year period. Id.
Moore brought her suit seeking rescission of the loans more than three years after
the consummation, which is to say she brought her suit after her right to rescind
had terminated. Therefore, the district court did not err in dismissing the action as
untimely.
AFFIRMED.
