In Texas, refusal to pay past due sums may not necessarily imply waiver of the right to reinstate. However, such behavior could lead to foreclosure. Always consult a local attorney for specific advice.
The reason I did not pay past due sums was because I wanted the bank to foreclose with the statutory limit but the bank reinstated the mortgage note anyway.
