A court that gets it! Reversed and remand with orders to enter involuntary dismissal! Finally the smoke and mirrors are clearing out. This court has pierced through the paperwork and is asking “how do we know there is any reality to what is stated on the paperwork relied upon by the foreclosing party?” In other words, show me the real transaction, prove the payments. Let’s see if any real transaction ever took place. By raising the issue of INTENT the Court is saying to the banks “we…

A class action lawsuit claims Michigan ignores due process when overseeing tax foreclosures. The Gongwer news service first reported on the lawsuit. Plaintiffs say the state does not hold impartial hearings so that people can appeal foreclosure decisions.

“Despite the Michigan Legislature’s 1999 overhaul of the tax foreclosure process, the State is stuck in time and completely disregards one of the opportunities for a delinquent taxpayer to make the case that the State should not be allowed to take their property for delinquent taxes via a show cause hearing,” the lawsuit reads. “Instead, the State convenes its own non-judicial mass meetings with delinquent taxpayers in Lansing, Michigan. “

The state handles tax foreclosures for several counties. The state lists Branch, Clinton, Dickinson, Iosco, Keweenaw, Livingston, Luce, Mecosta and Shiawassee counties, and the lawsuit claims Michigan also oversees tax foreclosures in Eaton County.

Not waiting for regulators — including state-government agencies — to expand protection of senior customers, Wells Fargo has decided to allow its brokers to interfere, even if the action could lead to lawsuits, Financial Advisor magazine writes.

Regulators certainly seem to be looking into ways to curb elder abuse. Finra launched a senior help line in April and — according to Gerri Walsh, head of Finra’s Investor Education Foundation — has already received 1,000 calls from brokerage clients as well as executors and beneficiaries of estates, reports the magazine.

But Wells Fargo is preparing to tackle the issue. Appearing at a Practising Law Institute seminar last week, Wells Fargo managing counsel Beverly Jo Slaughter said the firm’s brokers will be able to stop transactions if they suspect fraud — regardless of whether they have legal authority — even at the risk of getting sued, Financial Advisor reports.

Jamie needs to take his own advice and reverse those words: Dump all the bankster CEOs and the entire board and create a good team of CEO and board. And the first sentence of the article is absolutely correct: Dimon is no entrepreneur.

DENVER BUSINESS JOURNAL – Jamie Dimon says he is no entrepreneur.

But the JPMorgan Chase & Co. chairman and CEO knows business and how to succeed. Entrepreneurs, he said today, need a good team, need to dump the jerks, and sometimes need to fail.

Reverend Jesse Jackson said in 1972 at the Black National Convention in Gary, Indiana echoing the words of poet Leroi Jones (aka Amiri  Baraka) : It’s Nation Time! Well, it’s nation time! Time for every county  in every state to follow the example of Santa Cruz: Not do business with the banksters and move their monies in a community bank or small bank!

SF Gate:

The county’s Board of Supervisors just voted not to do business for five years with any of the five bank felons. The county won’t use the banks’ investment services or buy their commercial paper, and will pull its money out of the banks to the extent that it can.

“We have a sacred obligation to protect the public’s tax dollars, and these banks can’t be trusted,” said county SupervisorRyan Coonerty. “Santa Cruz County should not be involved with those who rigged the world’s…
