If you ever saw the movie “My Cousin Vinnie,” you saw his description of how you build a case against someone or a defense against the claim. It is like brickwork. While some lawyers (myself included) have occasionally been successful at getting rid of a case in one fell swell early swoop, it is rare. Each element […]

It occurs to me that most homeowners and most consumers who think they are installment payment contracts could send the following example of a letter I recently proposed to a client. If many homeowners and other consumers of financial products did this, it would raise the level of awareness in government and might even produce […]

In no case has any successor to MERS ever been alleged or proven. Unless some third party acquired both the originator and the underlying obligation from the defunct originator (which never happens), no party can direct MERS.  The problem with the law is that you must scrutinize every word down to the smallest component or you risk […]

I  have received a number of chat inquiries and registration statements in which homeowners have fat-fingered their own email addresses.

The homeowner has committed no sin. If a scheduled payment has been missed, nobody loses any money. And the homeowners who are making the scheduled payments are contributing to the revenue and profits of entities who have obtained the signature, reputation, and property of the homeowners under false pretenses. * Practically all law — i.e., […]

Many of the cases are technically “won” by homeowners who successfully point out that at the time the foreclosure commenced, the named claimant (plaintiff/beneficiary) did not have possession or construction possession of the promissory note and therefore had no legal standing to file suit. Common law precedent asserts that the judge is mandated to dismiss […]
