N.D. Cent. Code § 32-10.1-24

Effect of enforcement by mortgagee

1. A request by a mortgagee for appointment of a receiver, the appointment of a receiver, or application by a mortgagee of receivership property or proceeds to the secured obligation does not:

a. Make the mortgagee a mortgagee in possession of the real property;

b. Make the mortgagee an agent of the owner;

c. Constitute an election of remedies that precludes a later action to enforce the secured obligation;

d. Make the secured obligation unenforceable;

e. Limit any right available to the mortgagee with respect to the secured obligation; or f. Except as otherwise provided in subsection 2, bar a deficiency judgment in accordance with any other provision of law governing or relating to a deficiency judgment.

2. If a receiver sells receivership property that under subsection 3 of section 32-10.1-15 is free of a lien, the ability of a creditor to enforce an obligation that had been secured by the lien is subject to the law of this state other than this chapter relating to a deficiency judgment.
