OCC Announces EverBank Agrees to Pay $37 Million to Customers, $6.3 Million to Housing Assistance Groups

Internet Store Notice: As requested by customer service, this is to explain the use of the COMBO, Consultation and Expert Declaration. The only reason they are separate is that too many people only wanted or could only afford one or the other — all three should be purchased. The Combo is a road map for the attorney to set up his file and start drafting the appropriate pleadings. It reveals defects in the title chain and inferentially in the money chain and provides the facts relative to making specific allegations concerning securitization issues. The consultation looks at your specific case and gives the benefit of litigation support consultation and advice that I can give to lawyers but I cannot give to pro se litigants. The expert declaration is my explanation to the Court of the findings of the forensic analysis. It is rare that I am actually called as a witness apparently because the cases are settled before a hearing at which evidence is taken.

In its never-ending quest for putting distance between the Bank and the Homeowners who have been misled into thinking that Bank of America has any servicing or ownership rights over their mortgage, BOA has been transferring any mortgage they can to other entities — perhaps even paying the other entities to “take” the mortgages, which BOA didn’t own in the first place.

One such entity is EverBank which is a small thinly capitalized entity. The gimmick worked. Using the balance sheet of EverBank instead of Bank of America, the fine was probably one tenth or less than the the fine that would have been levied upon Bank of America. EverBank is getting paid to be thrown under the bus. The OCC used the EverBank Balance Sheet as a measuring stick and figured that $37 million fine for wrongful foreclosure processing was enough. If they had looked behind the curtain, which they most certainly had the knowledge about, they would have been fining Bank of America for the wrongful, illegal and immoral foreclosures.

And EverBank continues to file foreclosures that are riddled with obvious defects because they don’t have a real plaintiff, a real lender, a real loan, a real default or any real servicing rights. It is safe to say that they are so far removed from the realities of any actual transaction that it will be impossible to actually respond to discovery requests.

So I figured I would share with you some notes on a few of the cases with EverBank that you might find useful. As stated a thousand times before, do NOT use these forms or notes or anything else unless you ARE an attorney licensed in the jurisdiction in which the property is located or you consult with one.

NOTES ON EVERBANK FORECLOSURES

  1. The Plaintiff is self-identified in its own attachments as a servicer which means that judgment can only be rendered for the real creditor who under Florida Statutes governing credit bids can only be the actual creditor.
  2. The complaint is in rem and does not sue on the note, so there is no basis for the deficiency demanded in the wherefore clause.
  3. The servicing rights actually never existed because they would arise from a pooling and servicing agreement for a REMIC trust that was never funded nor was it able to purchase loans, nor were such loans transferred within the time limits prescribed by the REMIC laws and the terms of the pooling and servicing agreement. Since the REMIC was ignored, the terms of the PSA were ignored, no servicer could exist except with apparent authority. It remains to be seen to whom the the payments were made after receipt of payments from the Homeowner Defendant. despite the lack of any actual legal authority for servicing rights through any enforceable agreement to which the Homeowner defendant was a party  parties variously assigned servicing rights and endorsed the unenforceable note.
  4. Generally they were transferred by BOA as successor to BAC as successor to one of several Countrywide entities none of which were the lenders, servicers, or mortgage brokers for the loan. The reference to succession is false. Countrywide changed its name to BAC for a short while, following which Bank of America falsely claimed ownership, as successor to Countrywide despite the fact that the FDIC records show that a merger of some sort took place between Red Oak merger Corporation and Countrywide, but there is no indication that the agreement in the FDIC records shown in its “Reading Room” on the internet, that Bank of America ever acquired Red Oak or that Red Oak was a wholly owned subsidiary of Bank of America or anything of the sort.
  5. The mortgagee is named as either MERS as a naked nominee with no interest in the loan, or another entity that does not exist in the records of the Florida Secretary of state or anywhere else, and does not even pretend to be an entity organized and existing under the laws of any state. Hence there is no actual payee under the note and there never was, and there is no mortgagee under the mortgage, because the alleged party having an interest int he collateral is a naked nominee without any disclosure as to the true party in interest. This prevents the entire purpose of recording which is to allow for the complete transparency of ownership and encumbrances so that buyers and sellers can be certain that their transaction is valid.
  6. The complaint fails to state any loan or advance of money was ever made to the defendant Homeowner because the Homeowner has learned through hiring professional forensic auditors that none of the parties in the chain leading up to the Plaintiff Evergreen ever had ownership or servicing rights tot he loan. Instead, the loan came from the account of an investment bank that was used as a conduit for the money of investors who thought they were buying mortgage bonds from a REMIC trust organized under the laws of the State of New York. However the trust was never funded and the loan was never transferred into the trust. Accordingly the real creditor, with whom, the Defendant would like to engage in settlement or modification discussions, is a group of investors who might be loosely identified as a general partnership that does not qualify as a bank, lender, or even mortgage broker.
  7. The complaint fails to state any injury to any party in the complaint. his is because the money came from investors and on top of that, the intermediaries in the cloud of false securitization claims, received multiple payouts of the entire loan balance that should have reduced the account receivable of the investors who were the only parties who advanced money, to either zero, less than zero (with money owed back to the borrower) or at least less than the amount demanded  by Evergreen, who had no right to issue a demand letter since the actual owners of the loan had never given such an instruction.

ROUGH DRAFT OF MOTION TO DISMISS

Motion to Dismiss:
a. The pleadings conflict with the attachments. Everbank is named as either servicer or holder but no party is named as creditor. The attachments show a different party as the lender.
b. The complaint fails to allege injury to Evergreen and a short plain statement of how EverBank was financially damaged. Plaintiff fails to attach cancelled check(s) or wire transfer receipt(s) or wire transfer instructions for an actual transaction — which is the essential element and foundation for use of the note and mortgage as evidence of the transaction and the terms of repayment depending upon whether Plaintiff is attempting to enforce the terms of the NOTE, MORTGAGE, DEBT, LOAN OR ASSIGNMENT.
c. Prior communications with Countrywide, BAC and BOA and the borrower indicate alternately that each of those entities was the holder, but then revealed the existence of a loan pool claiming an interest. Plaintiff should be required to attach a copy of the cancelled checks or wire transfer receipts to show which party is actually claiming injury and a short plain statement of why their claim is secured.
d. Plaintiff has failed to allege that it or any affiliate or predecessor or successor has responded to the RESPA 6 (Qualified Written Request) sent by borrower or the Debt Validation Letter sent to the apparent servicer which alternated between Countrywide, BAC and Bank of America.
e. Plaintiff has filed to allege and attach relevant copies of documentation demonstrating proof of ANY POTENTIAL OR ACTUAL LOSS nor any authority to represent the creditor(s) and identifying the creditor who meets the standard of a party qualified to submit a credit bid at foreclosure auction, execute a satisfaction of mortgage upon payment, or a a correct accounting of the loan receivable or bond receivable if the loan is in fact claimed by any of the above stakeholders to be owned by a loan pool, REMIC, Special purpose vehicle or trust.
f. Unless the Plaintiff can allege and attach documents showing financial injury to Plaintiff as of the date that the complaint was filed, it lacks standing in this case.
g. Since the case is essentially in rem with the requested relief being the foreclosure sale of the property owned by the Defendant, Plaintiff has failed to state a cause of action upon which relief could be granted.

h. Even if the court were to rule that the Plaintiff had standing to initiate foreclosure proceedings, the Plaintiff must identify the party in the Judgement who will be  named, and supply the accounting required to show the amount of  financial injury, produce and attach the required documents to the complaint and prove its allegations and exhibits by competent evidence.

i. It is apparent here that Plaintiff lacks standing and certainly has failed to plead and attach required documents demonstrating financial injury since according to its own pleadings and attachments it was neither the lender nor the purchaser of the loan according to the existing allegations and exhibits.

WHEREFORE, Defendant prays that this Honorable Court will dismiss Plaintiff’s complaint with prejudice unless Counsel for Plaintiff can proffer in good faith that it can plead and attach the required exhibits and grant Defendant reasonable attorney fees and costs for defending a patently sham pleading.

FLORIDA SUPREME COURT RIPS UP BANKS’ PLAYBOOK

MOST POPULAR ARTICLES

EDITOR’S COMMENT: Here is the game:

A party comes into court filing a complaint against someone who is essentially unable to defend themselves. The suit is fake and uses fraudulent documents to support it. In the usual course of events the “defendant” defaults, judgment is entered and the faker gets to enforce the judgment, driving the hapless defenseless person who was sued into bankruptcy and depression, marriage breakups etc. You know the routine.

(By the way the North Caroline Court has stated that just because you failed to object doesn’t mean that the party trying to foreclose doesn’t need to prove its case, which is why I think the last couple of days have been the turning point where borrowers get their day in court and pretender lenders get their days or years in jail).

So back to our example. Enter the borrower, usually not represented by counsel because the legal profession is clueless for the most part on the dynamics of fraud in securitized loans. The borrower challenges the attempt at foreclosure (or any other type of lawsuit where this playbook can be used). The borrower shows the court that the suit is a fake and that the documents were fabricated, forged, false — a fraud upon the court. The trial court dismisses the fake action and agrees to hear a motion for contempt at which the faker will be punished for all its wrongdoing, right?

Not so fast. The Bank Playbook provides easy to understand instructions to lawyers representing the fakers. Force the issue as far as you can but dismiss the action before the motion for contempt can be heard. This will deprive the court of jurisdiction over the case and the Judge will be powerless to enter an order for sanctions. End of case, for now, and maybe we will file using other but better fabricated false documents another day. No risk to the lawyer, the Bank or servicer, or anyone else, leaving the hapless homeowner in the dust. This play has been working perfectly for years. Suddenly it ground to a halt yesterday in Florida, and will most likely spread the word like wildfire as Courts across the country realize they have been played for fools.

So the borrower in this case said “wait a minute!” The borrower/defendant filed an appeal that essentially said that the filing of a false lawsuit with false documents invokes the jurisdiction of the Court and that the Court decides when the case is over, not the litigants, if there are any other important issues to be decided — like committing fraud upon the Court.The borrower contends that the filing of the dismissal did not deprive the Court of jurisdiction, it merely rendered the legal issues presented by the lawsuit to be moot, which is the point that the Florida Supreme Court agreed with.

So the case goes up to the District Court of Appeal which says, well, we don’t know for sure, so we certify the question to the Supreme Court. The faker “settles” with (read that “Pays off”) the borrower under some agreement that is sealed under confidentiality. There are thousands of those confidential agreements now.

So the faker and the borrower sign the agreement and sign a notice to the Supreme Court that the case has been settled and that it is over, done, kaput! In the playbook of the Banks this deprives the Supreme Court of jurisdiction even in a case designated by the lower appellate court as being of great public importance and in which the appellate court below cites their own experience with many cases involving fake claims with fraudulent documents. Not so fast.

The Supreme Court of Florida said quite correctly that WE decide when the case is over, especially when it is of great public importance, and you, faker, don’t  dictate to us when we do or don’t have jurisdiction. If you filed a fake lawsuit with fraudulent documents, we want to consider the options of the trial judge and stop such practices from happening. The fact that the case is moot between you and the the victim of your little game does not mean we can’t hear the case. You can come to oral argument if you like, and you can submit a brief or not. But we ARE going to hear this case and we are going to issue an opinion. FINALLY A COURT WITH THE COURAGE OF ITS CONVICTIONS.

OOPS! BONY, US BANK, BOA, Wells Fargo, Ocwen, Deutsch, Countrywide, JP Morgan, et al now have a serious problem. In prior cases where a court levied sanctions against these fakers, the sanctions have been rather high, including one case in Massachusetts where an infuriated judge levied over $800,000 against the lawyers and the client, Wells Fargo.6 million foreclosures nationwide, most of which fall into the faker category.

What could the liability of the lawyers and the banks be? Well just for starters, you can bet that most of the lawyers are going to be referred to their bar associations for discipline which will result in either suspension or revocation of their license. But beside that here is what awaits the financial industry on 6 million foreclosures.

  • If the fine is $1,000, the total fines will be $6 Billion. But sorry boys, that size fine is less than a slap on the wrist these days so its doubtful that the judge upon learning that a fake suit had been filed with fraudulent documents will not fine the participants — lawyer and client—  far more than that. 
  • If the fine is $10,000, then the total fines will be $60 billion. Sorry again, considering the gravity of the situation, the corruption of title registries, the destructive impact on our society as a whole, most courts are going to go for more than that as well as referring for criminal prosecution and bar grievance procedure. 
  • If the fine is $100,000 each against the lawyers and the client, for each case, which is around what I think the fine is likely to be (at a Minimum), then the total exposure is $1.2 trillion, half against the banks and half against the lawyers.
  • And if they follow the model established in other courts, the fine could be $1 million each against the lawyers and the client, FOR EACH CASE, (if the motion for contempt is brought by the borrower) then the total exposure is around $12 trillion, $6 trillion against the banks and $6 trillion against the lawyers. Considering the most recent revelation of $29 trillion bailouts from the federal Reserve alone on false claims of losses, a fine of one-third that amount doesn’t seem out of line even if the dollar amount sounds high. Bankruptcy anyone?

MAYBE THAT BANK PLAYBOOK WAS NOT SO SMART AFTER ALL.

Settlement won’t prevent Fla. foreclosure hearing

By BILL KACZOR

Associated Press

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Parties in a Florida mortgage foreclosure lawsuit focusing on allegations of tainted documents will get their day in the Florida Supreme Court even though neither side wants it.

A sharply divided high court on Thursday refused a request by borrower and lender alike to dismiss the Palm Beach County case. They had sought the dismissal after agreeing to settle the case before the justices could hear it.

In a 4-3 opinion, the majority justices wrote that the borrower’s appeal was too important to dismiss, as it raises a question that “transcends the individual parties to this action because it has the potential to impact the mortgage foreclosure crisis throughout this state.”

That question is whether a trial judge can penalize a party for committing a “fraud on the court” if that party voluntarily dismisses the case before it’s resolved. Two lower courts said they cannot. The high court next will consider arguments on that issue.

The majority wrote that judges and litigants also need guidance from the Supreme Court and that the legal issue has implications beyond mortgage cases.

Florida’s collapsing real estate market has resulted in thousands of foreclosures, but officials have turned up many instances of fraudulent and erroneous filings.

They include documents bearing the signatures of so-called “robo-signers” – people hired to sign foreclosure papers in assembly line fashion without necessarily knowing what’s in them.

Those findings resulted in civil and criminal investigations, the collapse of two major foreclosure law firms and the temporary shutdown of foreclosure filings by many lenders.

The high court’s ruling came in a foreclosure filed by the Bank of New York Mellon. The defendant, Roman Pino, alleged the bank filed a forged document to deceive the court. He asked the judge to penalize the bank by denying it any right to foreclose on the mortgage.

The judge denied his request because the bank had voluntarily dismissed the complaint. The 4th District Court of Appeal affirmed that decision but asked the Supreme Court to rule on the issue, certifying it as a “question of great public importance.”

Pino appealed but then joined the bank in asking the Supreme Court to dismiss the case after they settled.

Chief Justice Charles Canady acknowledged in his dissent that the high court has on occasion rejected a stipulation for dismissal, but he argued that retaining jurisdiction before both sides have submitted written briefs is unprecedented.

The ruling will force the parties to argue a case that neither side wants to pursue, Canady noted.

“They should not be dragooned into litigating a matter that is no longer in controversy between them simply because this court determines that an issue needs to be decided,” Canady wrote.

Justices Ricky Polston and Peggy Quince concurred with Canady’s dissent.

The majority justices, though, wrote it’s Canady’s interpretation that goes against precedent. They said it would require the high court to recede from past decisions that denied dismissals in similar circumstances.

They also noted Pino filed an initial brief before the settlement although the bank had not.

Forensic analysis, DISCOVERY: BofA Hides Behind Reconstrust Subsidiary

Editor’s Notes: Bank of America is smarter than most. It has created a web of companies whose function is to perform activities that hide the fact that it is Bank of America, and there are other pretender lenders who hide behind this entity who suddenly appears as “trustee” or some other entity claiming the right to enforce the note, foreclose the mortgage, lift the stay or whatever. Recontrust is one of them, and it agrees with its “customers” that it will never make a REAL claim to the obligation, note or mortgage. But it also agrees to make claims and pursue foreclosures as though they were the creditor, reporting back later on what happened.

RECONTRUST APPARENTLY HAS 12 EMPLOYEES. Yet it handles virtually the whole country for Countrywide Loans, BofA and others. From what I can see it is a sham corporation with sham functions much the same as MERS and other players invented to make this process more complicated. Taking the cue from one of our readers, I did some additional research and found no less than four addresses in four states for this company, obviously designed to give you the run-around. So if you contact one office you are told to contact another. And if you contest their right to issue a notice of default, notice of sale or file a foreclosure lawsuit or defend your own lawsuit to stop them they have plenty of newly fabricated paperwork to justify their position, because that is apparently all they do.

If you want to test this, just call them and ask about a property that is not in foreclosure. They have nothing. So the only reason we see them is to provide cover for the pretender lenders and give them plausible deniability if they come up against a judge or has their number and now wants to award damages, attorney fees, or fines.

As we have repeatedly stated on this blog, the trigger for the huge deficits was the housing nightmare conjured up for us by Wall Street. Banks made trillions of dollars in profits that were never taxed. The tax laws are already in place. Everyone is paying taxes, why are they not paying taxes? If they did, a substantial portion of the deficits would vanish. Each day we let the bankers control our state executives and legislators, we fall deeper and deeper in debt, we lose more social services and it endangers our ability to maintain strong military and law enforcement.

The argument that these unregulated transactions are somehow exempt from state taxation is bogus. There is also the prospect of collecting huge damage awards similar to the tobacco litigation. I’ve done my part, contacting the State Treasurers and Legislators all over the country, it is time for you to do the same. It’s time for you to look up your governor, State Treasurer, Commissioner of Banking, Commissioner of Insurance, State Commerce Commission, Secretary of State and write tot hem demanding that they pursue registration fees, taxes, fines, and penalties from the parties who say they conducted “out-of-state” transactions relating to real property within our borders. If that doesn’t work, march in the streets.

The tax, fee, penalty and other revenue due from Wall Street is easily collectible against their alleged “holding” of mortgages in each state. One fell swoop: collect the revenue, stabilize the state budget, renew social services, revitalize community banks within the state, settle the foreclosure mess, stabilize the housing market and return homeowners to something close to the position they were in before they were defrauded by fraud, predatory lending and illegal practices securitizing loans that were too bad to ever succeed, even if the homeowner could afford the house.
