In this episode, Investigator Bill Paatalo questions a declaration that was submitted in a Washington case in which he has been consulting.
Scott Aronowitz executes as a “Litigation specialist” for Selene Finance, LP. However, Paatalo’s research shows that Aronowitz is an attorney, but fails to disclose this fact. Paatalo brings up that this is a new trend where in-house counsel executes mortgage documents without anyone knowing they are licensed attorneys. In this case Aronowitz attests that Selene has the original note in its possession, and that he is familiar with the record keeping practices of Countrywide and ReconTrust. (See:paragraph #2).

Of concern, where are the Motions to Compel the note history screenshots (like the Diddrick case attached) proving the bogus note endorsements? In Diddrick, David Spector’s endorsement was placed on the note in 2012 for purposes of litigation. We have the attorney in the infamous Kemp v. Countrywide case also stating in the transcript (attached) that David Spector’s endorsement was placed on the Allonge because it was needed for “litigation”.
In the Arkansas BK case Schiefer v Wells Fargo – Arkansas, Paatalo points out that the Wells Fargo witness admits the endorsement of the WaMu officer was placed on the note by Chase in 2013- despite failing to exist after 2008. The fraud on the court becomes more flagrant. This fraudulent method of endorsing notes for litigation is the servicer modus operandi, and yet the servicers all have the note history for the endorsements within their servicing platforms to prove they are bogus, etc., WHERE ARE THE MOTIONS TO COMPEL THESE NOTE HISTORIES?!
Is there a legal issue with undisclosed in-house attorneys filing these sworn statements on behalf of their clients / employers in various jurisdictions where they are not authorized or licensed to practice law? Paatalo’s limited research has revealed that in-house attorneys may have to seek permission from the court to appear and pay a fee for these limited appearances but they are not doing so.
Neil Garfield states that if there is a licensed attorney making these claims without knowledge, a Bar complaint could be filed assuming the attorney doesn’t have the required knowledge to make the declaration. But a homeowner or attorney must state that he did not have the knowledge and why they came to that conclusion. Since the declaration is not based on personal knowledge, and the attorney likely had no contact with the loan’s boarding or prior history at other servicers, the declaration should be struck.
Attorney Charles Marshall and investigator Bill Paatalo will discuss bankruptcy procedure and civil lawsuit procedure intersect and how to navigate that intersection for plaintiff’s in non-judicial states looking to file foreclosure lawsuits.
