By Neil Garfield
The Justices of the Fifth District Court and courts especially in California have been interpreting procedural rules, laws of evidence, statutory and common law differently in foreclosure cases than they do in other cases where the issues are identical as to ownership and authority to collect a debt. The Guliex decision, in this case, returns us to the rule of law in California, and hence the nation, to the extent courts follow the Courts in California. The decision inherently conflicts with other decisions in California, even if the decision is not facially apparent.
In this case, the court merely stated the law as it always was before the foreclosure crisis ( and still is in all other cases). It provides great clarity and its effect will be to reduce the volume of foreclosures generally and wrongful foreclosures especially. The decision, in this case, changes the application of the law from what has been recently enunciated in other decisions. It places the burden where it belongs — on the foreclosing party such that it cannot achieve a forced sale by nonjudicial means in a case that where it would have lost in a judicial proceeding.
Hence the decision would bar the unconstitutional application of nonjudicial legislative frameworks. It essentially reduces the use of assumptions and presumptions of facts that are not true and are within the sole knowledge and control of the party claiming to be authorized to foreclose.
The Guliex decision levels the playing field significantly by requiring actual proof rather than presumed proof. Without the publication of this decision courts in the Fifth district will continue to be at liberty to disregard the rule of law and continue to be creative in finding a basis for strangers to transactions to prevail in enforcing those transactions.
I can assure the Court that in addition to the notices and letters that have been tendered to the Clerk, some of which seem to have been rejected, I have received hundreds of emails and comments, mostly in California, from both attorneys and pro litigants who all want this decision to be published.

08/07/2017 Order denying publication filed. The multiple requests for publication of the opinion filed in the above entitled matter from July 31, 2017 through and including August 4, 2017, are hereby denied. The opinion does not establish a new rule of law, nor does it meet any of the other criteria set forth in California Rules of Court, rule 8.1105(c). In compliance with California Rules of Court, rule 8.1120(b), the Clerk/Administrator of this court shall transmit copies of the requests for publication, the opinion, and this order to the Supreme Court.
“On July 12, 2017 the California Fifth Appellate Court issued an unpublished opinion in the case of Guliex v. Pennymac Holdings Inc. This is a case that discusses chain of title in relation to a case of foreclosure. The opinion has a very detailed discussion of chain of title and points out the broken links in the chain. Because the opinion discusses this issue in such detail many who have been affected by foreclosure of mortgage problems find it a compelling decision.”

@Kalifornia – ‘moniker’ @aol.com Thanks.
@ Papergate
Honestly, other than the moniker “Papergate”, I have no idea what your name is and whether it is in the list of requests for publication.
Is there an e-mail address to communicate directly with you — outside of LL comments?
Response from Neil Garfield: Yes it happens all the time. But it raises a potential issue for a claim for modification fraud, fraud in the inducement, TILA, FDCPA, RESPA ETC. Part of this relates to the fact that the modification was in fact a new loan with a new false lender.

@Kalifornia – thanks for status – as an official certified legal professional in California and notary, was my request (w/POS) filed or not? Thanks for all your hard work on this project.
Wonderful Marina!
In ignorance, I never knew that the politics could be played this way, and while there may be deadlines set, I think there ought to be massive public outcry to get things in motion, and if letters and emails from across the country could make a difference, I’d say it’s time to try this for everything that’s every been shushed where logic, reason, the rule of law, the rights of the people, and the good of our nation is at stake. We can all work for this now and be prepared for the next time.
I know my group hand carried 630 letters from foreclosed homeowners requesting Guliex publication to Fresno CA on 08/01/2017 when court opened up at 8 am.

I am requesting what you asked about … in my case we have the true note owner and the fake assignment trail… I do not expect to ever get a true and correct answer to discovery ,, and in fact I expect no answer at all. The plaintiff is already logically checkmated based on submissions in the first FC suit and subsequent findings of fact by superior courts… I’ll let you know when the time comes if I am not bound by a gag order…
Reblogged this on California freelance paralegal and commented:
That is very unfortunate that the Court did not publish this opinion. It is true that California Rule of Court 8.1115(a) states that an unpublished opinion cannot be cited. However it is also true that this conflicts with Evidence Code section 452(d)(1) which states that judicial notice may be taken as to the “[r]ecords of any court of this state.” One California Court of Appeal recognized the conflict with Rule 8.1115(a), stating that “[a]lthough [a] Court of Appeal opinion . . . is not published, we may take judicial notice thereof as a court record pursuant to Evidence Code section 452, subdivision (d)(1).” Gilbert v. Master Washer & Stamping Co. (2001) 87 Cal. App. 4th 212, 218, n. 14 (taking judicial notice of an unpublished opinion of the California Court of Appeal to aid in the analysis of a subsequent appeal therefrom).
Another issue is that in deciding the conflict between Rules of Court, Rule 8.1115(a) and Evidence Code section 452(d)(1), the California Constitution suggests that the statutory evidence code must take precedence.”
Visit this link for more information: http://www.rhlaw.com/blog/citing-unpublished-opinions-the-conflict-between-the-no-citation-rule-and-judicial-notice/
Specifically, California Constitution Article VI, § 6(d), which provides the authority of the Judicial Council to promulgate the Rules of Court, states that the “council shall . . . adopt rules for court administration, practice and procedure, and perform other functions prescribed by statute. The rules adopted shall not be inconsistent with statute.” (Emphasis added.)
@ EVERYONE
In Guliex, there are ~21 “Filed” requests for publication.
All other requests were merely processed as “Received”; apparently because of the lack of a proof of service
According to the Court’s own rule there is supposed to be 20 days to file requests for publication of an opinion, which would extrapolate to August 1.
Here, however, following the sole “Filed” request by “Attorney Glen Moss obo Moss & Murphy” on July 25 the docket indicates:
“07/27/2017 Order denying publication filed. The request for publication of the opinion filed in the above entitled action on July 12, 2017, is denied. The opinion does not establish a new rule of law, nor does it meet any of the other criteria set forth in California Rules of Court, rule 8.1105(c). In compliance with California Rules of Court, rule 8.1120(b), the Clerk/Administrator of this court shall transmit copies of the request for publication, the opinion, and this order to the Supreme Court.”
Thus, there are 20 additional timely “Filed” requests to “transmit copies of…to the Supreme Court.”
QUESTION(s):
Does anyone know of or if there is a procedural mechanism to compel the inclusion of the other 20 additional timely “Filed” requests to “transmit copies of…to the Supreme Court”?
Would ground exist for a writ?
Will it help to continue to submit requests? Would it help to write representatives?

Neil,lending lies team.
question… has anyone that has settled, on a foreclosure, and has had settlement agreements , signed by the servicer, acting also for the fake trusts, and also signing as trustee, .
what am asking, is even though a settlement was signed, by the homeowner, as the real party who owns home, then also signed by
party’s acting/as owners of the debt, and also signing as the alleged fake trust we all know is true.
is there a way to get a money trail, of the settlement money that was to go to the fake trustee??????
i would think there should be, and if the money did not get to trustee/trust that was stated in settlement , that would be a great fraud case. ?????
