Bankruptcy Judge Margaret M. Mann GETS IT!

Coming off of the heels of in re: Agard (http://dtc-systems.net/2011/02/mers-agency-york-bankruptcy-court-agard/), the Honorable Judge Mann from the United States Bankruptcy Court Southern District of California took 76 days to review the Motion for Relief From Automatic Stay for the in re: Salazar Chapter 13 bankruptcy (Bankruptcy No: 10-17456-MM13). The findings of fact and conclusions of law were an amazing reading that confirms many of the issues we have been discussing in regards to loans, securitization and foreclosure. Like Judge Grossman in the agard case, Judge Mann goes to great lengths to research the details that are applicable to this case. Here are some highlights: Continue reading “Bankruptcy Judge Margaret M. Mann GETS IT!”

How Do I Order Certified Copies of SEC Filings?

How Do I Order Certified Copies of SEC Filings?

Send an email to [email protected]

Ask them for ALL filings related to the trust and then give them the exact name of the trust (this can be a challange). If you can, give them information about one of the filings from this trust (accession number and/or SEC file number). There are usually not that many files associated with a specific securitized trust. I received approx. 2,000 pages. It cost me $26.00 for photocopy fees.

Also you can only request one entity per email. So if you want copies of information for this trust from the depositor (for instance my static loan level file was in an 8-k from the depositor), you will need to request them separately from the trust entity request. In this case reference the specific documents you need by date, accession number and SEC filing number (because the depositor usually has a very large number of filings which are probably unrelated to your specific trust).

Tell them you are ready willing and able to pay the fees necessary. Give them your name and address. You might want to give them your phone number, but if they have questions they will probably just email you. I asked them for two copies of everything but they said I will only get one copy.

The Wrong Remedy at the Wrong Time, Part 3

The Wrong Remedy at the Wrong Time, Part 3

By Daniel Edstrom
DTC Systems, Inc.

The previous three parts to this topic related to the trustee and the beneficiary having the right to petition the court under California Probate Code 17200. This section will talk about the rights of the settlor to petition the Court under California Probate Code 17200.

California Civil Code 2934b says the following:

Sections 15643 and 18102 of the Probate Code apply to trustees under deeds of trust given to secure obligations.

World Savings Bank Loans Were Securitized – Pooling and Servicing Agreement Uncovered

World Savings Loans Were Securitized – Pooling and Servicing Agreement Uncovered

By Daniel Edstrom
DTC Systems, Inc.

Contrary to what Wells Fargo is saying in court, we have proof that World Savings Bank Securitized loans into REMICs. We had some evidence of this already, but newly added is a Pooling and Servicing Agreement that we have acquired for World Savings Bank REMIC 12. The terms are fairly standard that you see in most other securitizations, except that World Savings Bank played nearly all parts in the transaction (the originator, sponsor/seller, depositor, underwriter, etc). The servicers were required and obligated to make principal and interest payments whether or not they receive them from the homeowners, the notes were required to be endorsed without recourse to the order of Trustee and showing an unbroken chain of endorsements [..] from the originator thereof to the Person endorsing it to Trustee. It is all here, even the second set of books kept by the master servicer (you know, the true accounting that is concealed, misrepresented and not disclosed to any court of law).

This is a HUGE breakthrough for those looking for evidence that their World Savings Bank loans were securitized.

We are receiving numerous reports that when bankruptcy is filed by a consumer, their accounts with Wells Fargo are frozen. This is just a warning to all of those with any type of accounts at Wells Fargo. Be prepared to lose access to your accounts for at least 30 days, probably longer. Too big to fail? No, too big to keep.

Foreclosure Mills Continue Down the Wide Path of Destruction

Foreclosure Mills Continue Down the Wide Path of Destruction

By Daniel Edstrom
DTC Systems, Inc.

We have already talked about the foreclosure mills the Law Offices of David J. Stern PA and Ben-Ezra & Katz PA and NDEx West (owned by Dolan Media) with its doppelgänger foreclosure mill law firm, Barrett Daffin Frappier Turner & Engle. Now we turn our attention to Shapiro & Burson apparently out of Maryland. As stated on livinglies.wordpress.com (and originally from 4closurefraud.org), The Baltimore Sun’s Jamie Smith Hopkins reports that 1,000 or more Maryland deeds are likely forgeries that were created by a foreclosure mill (the law firm of Shapiro & Burson). It turns out that last year two other law firms in Maryland admitted they had forged signatures on foreclosure documents in a similar manner (Bierman Geesing & Ward along with Covahey Boozer Devan and Dore). I have already shown that NDEx West (owned by Dolan Media) along with Barrett Daffin Frappier Turner & Engle does the same thing. This is very easy to show for just about any foreclosure mill. Here is how. Just go down to the recorders office and pull up 20 documents in each of the last 3 or 4 years naming your favorite foreclosure mill (NDEx West or whoever). The chances of you not finding one forgery are probably close to 0%. The chances of you finding multiple forgeries is very high (99%+).

Update on Foreclosures in Oregon

Update on Foreclosures in Oregon

David Ambrose
Ambrose Law Group, LLC

Here is the latest, which while limited to Oregon, certainly can be applicable to any other states permitting nonjudicial foreclosure actions but requiring the recording of assignments of the mortgage or trust deed.

You may recall the postings about the decision of Judge Alley in U.S Bankruptcy Court in Oregon (McCoy v BNC Mortgage), finding that in to proceed with nonjudicial foreclosures in Oregon, the applicable statute requires that there be a chain of recorded assignments (which, by the way, in Oregon you cannot record a document unless it is notarized), from the original beneficiary to the current beneficiary, and that MERS is not the beneficiary.

“Item 8.01 Other Events.

Stern, P.A., has announced that it will be ceasing the practice of law with respect to all pending foreclosure matters in the State of Florida as of March 31, 2011.

Anger Growing Over the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency’s Regulation of National Banks

Anger Growing Over the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency’s Regulation of National Banks

By Daniel Edstrom
DTC Systems, Inc.

Instead of regulating the national banks as they have been mandated, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) appears to actually be promoting the outrageous behavior of the banks. According to various groups, “Right now, more than 500 people are making lots of noise outside the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency – the worst bank regulator that you never heard of. They are demanding that the OCC stop throwing homeowners under the bus in the their tireless efforts to protect the big banks.”

Apparently the OCC does not know that citizens are using the Internet to understand what they are doing. The OCC believes it can stand up against the very people of this country that it was specifically designed to protect – the citizens who are being used as pawns. The people are being taken for a ride by the national banks who are and have been operating outside of their authority for many years (at least 5 years, probably much longer). How can the banks be operating outside of their authority? When they operate against public policy, including when they have inadequate risk measurements in place and inadequate internal controls. This is obvious from their actions over the last 5 years – including the use of robo-signers, flagrant notary violations, inadequate affidavits and declarations, etc., etc. The list goes on and on, but this is nothing new to the OCC. After all, they have given legal opinions based on this very information. They know exactly what is going on but apparently refuse to act – or are completely incompetent. Because they are doing the very opposite of what they have given in their legal opinions, it is apparent that they are not incompetent, but are refusing to enforce their very own regulations.
