Hon. Philip S. Straniere – The judge in the “Sixth Sense” part of the Civil Court, seeing cases with “dead corporations” represented by “dead law firms”

“This is another case which is slowly convincing me that I am the judge in the “Sixth Sense” part of the Civil Court where, like characters in that film who only see dead people, I am relegated to seeing cases with “dead corporations” represented by “dead law firms,” citing Hon. Philip S. Straniere from CENTURION CAPITAL CORP., v. ANNA GUARINO. 

Sounds a lot like mortgage foreclosure fraud, doesn’t it?  Bankrupt mortgage lending companies resurrecting themselves as the ghost of the bank or pretender lender that exited years earlier – all of a sudden, without legal authority they appear in court trying to fool the homeowners, investors, state recordation offices and courts with fabricated (too late) assignments of mortgage to trusts that closed years earlier and are now rapidly depleting their assets – paid off likely with TARP funds – thank you very much.

Obama Grinch – What the Republicans Grasp that the Democrats Ignore

What the Republicans grasp that the Democrats ignore is that the vast majority of the 99% want the bank cartel to collapse. Albeit the average American is not prepared to endure the final financial force majeure – they just know they want an end to the corruption.

So, the Republicans, who will eat their own, high-five (with a wink) when the banks slip in the stock market and the Tea Party vows to audit the Federal Reserve (if not outright eliminate it)…which they know the majority of Americans want. All of this is transpiring as the economy rolls on to a horrific collapse while Obama surrounds himself Continue reading

LISA FOR CLERK!

As the Wall Street mortgage-backed securities fraud collapsed the United States economy Florida began to get hammered.  Heavily weighted in Florida loans, targeted Florida homeowners of these failing trusts were the first to feel the brunt force of foreclosures.

From the financial force majeure grew a group of “warriors” that knew something was wrong and they began combing the county records for clues.  Among the first of the warriors was Lisa Epstein, an oncology nurse in Palm Beach County, Florida who started noticing something new — and unsettling — as patients talked about their struggles. Not only were her patients and their families coping with a serious diagnosis and the cost and side effects of treatments, but more and more of them were also facing the loss of their homes.   Continue reading

SECURITIZED DISTRUST

by Gary Victor Dubin, Honolulu, Hawaii

Gary Victor Dubin was a dynamite Honolulu foreclosure defense attorney with over 40 wins by the DUBIN LAW FIRM in Hawaii foreclosure courts for his clients just in the last year. This is a stunning success given the current judicial climate in Hawaii, not to mention the complexity of securitization, the hidden frauds…and of course, card games and golfing with banksters doesn’t help either. We now fondly call Gary, “Professor Dubin” – no one else has ever achieved his success.

Dubin’s essay “Securitized Distrust” is a culmination of insight with over 20+ years of first hand litigation and this leads right into our latest discovery of WaMu multiple trust loan assignments. Shuffling or fraud… or both?

The Cow Jumped Over the Moon – There Are Judges Killing the Titles

Reading the biased judicial opinion in the transcripts of the Florida case, Deutsche Bank vs. Renee Cuenca compels the apparent need to make an early opening statement.

Maybe it needs to be dialogue on a new television series – like “Fraud & Foreclosure” … or “Un-Justice”.

The Cuenca transcripts – like the more recent foreclosure orders dissing the borrowers’ rights to challenge the Assignment of Mortgages, instill a vivid picture of the “cow jumped over the moon.”  How does the Judge get from point A to point D without connecting the dots? Continue reading

A Former Chase Banker Spews His Unethical Guts

The banner NY Times headline was compelling, A Banker Speaks, With Regret By Published: November 30, 2011    The NY Times begins:

“If you want to understand why the Occupy movement has found such traction, it helps to listen to a former banker like James Theckston. He fully acknowledges that he and other bankers are mostly responsible for the country’s housing mess. As a regional vice president for Chase Home Finance in southern Florida, Theckston shoveled money at home borrowers. In 2007, his team wrote $2 billion in mortgages, he says. Sometimes those were “no documentation” mortgages.

“On the application, you don’t put down a job; you…  Continue reading
