RICE ORDER
Alberta
Lenders often apply to purchase the land under foreclosure for the appraised fair market value, and seek judgment for the shortfall between what the lender is owed and the fair market value. This is known as a “Rice order” because the process was approved in the case of Trusts & Guarantee Co. v. Rice (1924), 1924 CarswellAlta 35 (Alta. C.A.).
