Foreclosure crisis: Fed-up judges crack down disorder in the courts

Angry and exasperated by faulty foreclosure documents, judges throughout Florida are hitting back by increasingly dismissing cases and boldly accusing lawyers of "fraud upon the court."
A Palm Beach Post review of cases in state and appellate courts found judges are routinely dismissing cases for questionable paperwork. Although in most cases the bank is allowed to refile the case with the appropriate documents, in a growing number of cases judges are awarding homeowners their homes free and clear after finding fraud upon the court.
Still, critics say judges are not doing enough.
"The judges are the gatekeepers to jurisprudence, to the Florida Constitution, to access to the courts and to due process," said attorney Chip Parker, a Jacksonville foreclosure defense attorney who was recently investigated by the Florida Bar for his critical comments about so-called "rocket dockets" during an interview with CNN. "It's discouraging when it appears as if there is an exception being made for foreclosure cases."
In February, Miami-Dade County Circuit Judge Maxine Cohen Lando took one of the largest foreclosure law firms in the state to task in a public hearing meant to send a message. She called Marc A. Ben-Ezra, founding partner of Ben-Ezra & Katz P.A., before her to explain discrepancies in a case handled by an attorney in his Fort Lauderdale-based firm.
"This case should have never been filed," said Lando, who referred to the firm's work on the case as "shoddy" and "grossly incompetent." She called Ben-Ezra a "robot" who filed whatever the banks sent him, and held him in contempt of court. She then gave the homeowner the home - free and clear - and barred the lender from refiling the foreclosure.
Attorney Maria Mussari, who represents the homeowner, said she wasn't surprised.
"She has become a voice for other judges," Mussari said. "If judges crack down on following the rules, we'll still have foreclosures, but maybe the banks will pay attention and do it right."
Mussari said it's taken a while for the courts to wake up to the foreclosure disorder because homeowners were largely unrepresented and judges overwhelmed.
"It's not that they don't care," she said. "They have thousands of cases on their docket and it's the same thing over and over again."
Ongoing scrutiny by the FBI, the Florida attorney general, the Florida Bar, the media and defense attorneys has uncovered countless examples of forged signatures, post-dated documents, robo-signing and lost paperwork.
As a result, defense attorneys are filing more motions challenging the documents. That means judges must spend more time reviewing documents and holding hearings. The situation was complicated last week when attorney David J. Stern, who operated the largest so-called foreclosure mill in Florida, sent letters to the chief judges of Florida's 20 circuit courts announcing that he intended to violate court rules and dump 100,000 foreclosure cases without a judge's order.
"We no longer have the financial or personnel resources to continue to file Motions to Withdraw in tens of thousands of cases that we still remain as counsel of record," Stern wrote, suggesting that the judges treat the pending cases "as you deem appropriate."
Last year, Florida lawmakers gave the courts $6 million to hire senior judges and case managers to reduce the foreclosure backlog. Since the money was awarded July 1, judges have cleared nearly 140,000 cases. As of the end of February, 322,724 foreclosures were still in the system.
But clearing backlogs isn't what judges should be focused on, said University of Miami Law Professor A. Michael Froomkin .
"Substantive justice still needs to be done, and that's very hard sometimes," Froomkin said. "When I read stories about judges looking at things more carefully and holding attorneys accountable, to me, the system is doing what it needs to do."
A closer inspection of cases by judges would slow down the foreclosure train, but the result may be preferable to mere expediency.
"Justice," Froomkin said. "The outcome, I hope, is justice."
Alan White, a law professor at Valparaiso University in Indiana, who has studied the foreclosure issue nationwide, said judges had few reasons to doubt banks in the beginning of the foreclosure avalanche.
"They had a lot of credibility," White said. "Now, when a bank says it owns a mortgage, judges are skeptical."
White said a smattering of "maverick" judges began poking holes in foreclosures years ago before the media and lawmakers seized on problems in the fall. The judicial momentum has built since then.
"The combined impact will clearly be to change practices and to reduce the amount of corner-cutting the banks and their lawyers are engaged in," White said. "It could mean foreclosures get slower. It could also encourage banks to pursue alternatives to foreclosure."
The professors agree it's difficult for judges to pick out problems in foreclosure cases that are undefended. Homeowner advocate is not their role.
"They don't fix things," Froomkin said. "They decide cases."

Judges question the process… and they let the foreclosure attorneys have it.
From a Feb. 11 hearing in Miami-Dade regarding a Homestead foreclosure. The hearing ended with Judge Maxine Cohen Lando finding attorney Marc A. Ben-Ezra in contempt.
Lando: 'I don’t care what the banks — your clients — are telling you. Your job is to give your clients legal advice and you’re not doing it. You are acting as a robot for a plaintiff who is not even giving you the information you need to file a proper foreclosure.’
Lando: 'This level of practice is shoddy. It is grossly negligent. It is worthy of a judge looking at, and saying, what is going on here? How dare you file something like this.’
From a May 6 hearing in Miami-Dade. The hearing ended with Judge Jennifer Bailey awarding the home to the owner and barring the lender from attempting to foreclose again on the condo.
Bailey: 'And see, the really interesting thing to me as a judge is in no other species or kind of law would that be remotely acceptable, or, frankly, anything short of malpractice. But somehow in Foreclosure World everybody thinks that that’s just fine, that you all can know absolutely nothing about your files and walk in here and ask judges for things left and right without even knowing what’s going on.’
From an April 7 hearing in Pinellas County. Judge Anthony Rondolino set aside his prior ruling awarding summary judgment to the bank.
Rondolino: 'I don’t have any confidence that any of the documents the court’s receiving on these mass foreclosures are valid.’

Subject: American Wimps allow King Obama to go to WAR in violation of Constitution limit on presidential powerDate: Sun, 3 Apr 2011 11:51:36

If you do not protest the President’s illegal order to send Americans into a military action against Libya without the permission of Congress (as required by the US Constitution) you thereby invite the President to function as a King, not a president. Congress may NOT delegate the power to declare war (or any of its other powers).  Only Congress may constitutionally authorize “war” or use of military/CIA force in or out of uniform, including insurgency.

Do you like the idea of King Obama ruling over you and wasting your taxes to remove a Muslim tyrant so that an Islamic oligarch might take over in Libya?

Any president’s violation of the power of Congress constitutes grounds for impeachment.  NOT to impeach constitutes treason against the Constitution.

The Congress shall have power …
To define and punish piracies and felonies committed on the high seas, and offenses against the law of nations;
To declare war, grant letters of marque and reprisal, and make rules concerning captures on land and water;
To raise and support armies, but no appropriation of money to that use shall be for a longer term than two years;
To provide and maintain a navy;
To make rules for the government and regulation of the land and naval forces;
Vattel’s Law of Nations:

 the nation itself cannot make any attempt on the person of the sovereign, except in cases of extreme necessity, and when the prince, by violating the laws, and threatening the safety of his people, puts himself in a state of war against them. It is the person of the sovereign, not that of an unnatural tyrant and a public enemy, that the interest of the nation declares sacred and inviolable

"In the year 1581" (says Grotius, Ann. Book III.) "the confederated provinces of the Netherlands — after having for nine years continued to wage war against Philip the Second, without ceasing to acknowledge him as their sovereign — at length solemnly deprived him of the authority he had possessed over their country, because he had violated their laws and privileges,"

The Federalist No. 69 - The Real Character of the Executive

The President is to be the "commander-in-chief of the army and navy of the United States, and of the militia of the several States, when called into the actual service of the United States. He is to have power to grant reprieves and pardons for offenses against the United States, except in cases of impeachment; to recommend to the consideration of Congress such measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient; to convene, on extraordinary occasions, both houses of the legislature, or either of them, and, in case of disagreement between them with respect to the time of adjournment, to adjourn them to such time as he shall think proper; to take care that the laws be faithfully executed; and to commission all officers of the United States." In most of these particulars, the power of the President will resemble equally that of the king of Great Britain and of the governor of New York. The most material points of difference are these: -- First. The President will have only the occasional command of such part of the militia of the nation as by legislative provision may be called into the actual service of the Union. The king of Great Britain and the governor of New York have at all times the entire command of all the militia within their several jurisdictions. In this article, therefore, the power of the President would be inferior to that of either the monarch or the governor. Second. The President is to be commander-in-chief of the army and navy of the United States. In this respect his authority would be nominally the same with that of the king of Great Britain, but in substance much inferior to it. It would amount to nothing more than the supreme command and direction of the military and naval forces, as first General and admiral of the Confederacy; while that of the British king extends to the declaring of war and to the raising and regulating of fleets and armies -- all which, by the Constitution under consideration, would appertain to the legislature.1 
PUBLIUS
1. A writer in a Pennsylvania paper, under the signature of TAMONY, has asserted that the king of Great Britain oweshis prerogative as commander-in-chief to an annual mutiny bill. The truth is, on the contrary, that his prerogative, in this respect, is immenmorial, and was only disputed, "contrary to all reason and precedent," as Blackstone vol. i., page 262, expresses it, by the Long Parliament of Charles I. but by the statute the 13th of Charles II., chap. 6, it was declared to be in the king alone, for that the sole supreme government and command of the militia within his Majesty's realms and dominions, and of all forces by sea and land, and of all forts and places of strength, EVER WAS AND IS the undoubted right of his Majesty and his royal predecessors, kings and queens of England, and that both or either house of Parliament cannot nor ought to pretend to the same.

TV Channel 1

TV Channel 1 is now ON THE AIR – It’s the Bad News and Good News Chhannel.  All the bad news about government corruption, judicial corruption, and dishonesty in government.  But the good news about what we are doing to expose them and throw the corrupt out of office and vote honest people in.

Did you ever wonder why the TV channels on your TV set start with Channel 2?  That's because our government decided to hold Channel 1 for possible government use.  Well, we've got it, and we are using it for government uses...just not exactly what they had in mind back in the 1940's.  I registered this domain www.TVChannel1.com over 10 years ago, but never used it.

How to Watch TV Channel 1

Video plays continuously 24-hours-a-day.  There are currently approximately 75 videos on TV Channel 1.  When new videos are added, we will add them to the top of the queue so they will be the first to play when people visit the site.  In the future, we will have regular shows on various aspects of dishonesty and corruption.

To select specific videos to watch, click on the arrow on the right side of the TV screen.  It will open a window to show each of the scheduled videos.  Click on the video you want to see, and it will be shown for you.

Sunday Lawless America TV Shows

You can watch our Sunday TV Show from 5-7 pm EDT by simply going to our home page at http://www.lawlessamerica.com/. You will see a TV screen at the top of the page.  Just click to watch.  To participate by chat, voice, or video, be sure to register at http://www.shovio.com and login and watch from their site.  For more information, see http://www.lawlessamerica.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=207:government-corruption-crisis-online-tv-show-sunday-april-3-2011-5-7-pm-edt&catid=34:corruption&Itemid=55

Grand Jury News

Be sure to follow my efforts with the Fulton County Grand Jury -- http://www.lawlessamerica.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=205:grand-juries-should-be-the-answer-to-corruption-bill-windsor-confronts-the-fulton-county-grand-jury&catid=25:judicial-corruption-and-dishonesty&Itemid=55

If the Fulton County Superior Court judges happen to include a majority who are honest, the corruption of the federal judges in Atlanta will go to a Special Grand Jury.  This opens the door for everyone in Georgia who has been abused, and it will provide an argument for everyone in all other states, especially those that have county grand juries.

If you are not aware of the serious problem that we have with judicial corruption and government corruption, I ask you to become aware.  I’ve never been a political activist, a conspiracy theorist, or a nutcase; I’m just a fairly normal 62-year old grandpa and retired corporate CEO.  I learned about judicial and government corruption by accident – by becoming an unwary victiim.  My petitions to the U.S. Supreme Court became widely publicized online, and I have been contacted by thousands and thousands of victims.  For the most part, our judges and elected officials are completely uncontrollable; they lie, cheat, commit criminal acts, ignore the Constitution, Bill of Rights, and laws, and could care less about we the people.  If you want proof, email me at bill@LawlessAmerica.com.

How in the world do we get tens of millions of our fellow Americans to understand that we have the most serious problem that our country has ever faced: the dishonest and corrupt government officials in our own country?  It seems like an impossible task, but if we don’t try, I believe our country is headed for ruin.

We have a group of concerned citizens called GRIP – Government Reform & Integritty Platform.  GRIP is totally non-partisan.  We stand for honesty in government and protection of the fundamental rights that we were granted as Americans back when our country was formed.  Our solution to fixing America is to get honest people in government and give we the people the ability to make our government officials accountable.  It’s a simple plan, but it requires that we reach millions of people…one at a time. 

WE NEED YOUR HELP!  I’d like to ask three things of you.

1.    Realize that our country has a government corruption crisis.  At the end of this bulletin are links that will educate you, if you need proof.

2.    Invite your Friends to join our cause (and JOIN if you haven’t).  Just send your friends this link -- http://www.causes.com/causes/593708-support-the-constitution-bill-of-rights-honesty-in-government?recruiter_id=71512429 or click here to go to the Cause home page --  http://www.causes.com/causes/593708-support-the-constitution-bill-of-rights-honesty-in-government and then page down in the right column to “Your Recruiter Link.†  Copy that link and use it, as it will link everyone you recruit to your name so you can see who has and hasn’t joined.

3.    Donate 10 Minutes a Day.  Go to http://www.lawlessamerica.com/, and in the right column near the top of the page, note “10 Minutes a Day,†and click on “Click for projects.†  Each day, we add a 10-Minute Project.  If we get a significant number of people to help, we will accomplish a great deal.  The future of your loved ones should be worth 10 minutes a day.

Sadly, hardly any of you will do any of this.  If the government took your children away, you’d probably do something.  If a judge lied, cheated, committed crimes, and conspired with the opposing attorney and robbed you of every cent you have, you’d probably do something.  If you were arrested, indicted, convicted, and sent to prison on totally bogus charges, you’d probably want to do something.  The basic fundamental rights that you THINK you have as an American are a mirage.  Please help us wake up America!  This isn’t a Democrat-Republican thing; this is about getting rid of ALL of the dishonest and corrupt officials and replacing them with honest people who are accountable to us.

Our loved ones are counting on us.

The Next Housing Shock
As more and more Americans face mortgage foreclosure, banks’ crucial ownership documents for the properties are often unclear and are sometimes even bogus – a condition that’s causing lawsuits and hampering an already weak housing market. Scott Pelley reports. | Watch Teaser Video Here

Also from the report…

FDIC CHAIRMAN: FORECLOSURE CLEAN-UP FUND NEEDED

Sheila Bair says fund is needed to stem tide of lawsuits caused by bad mortgage paperwork in foreclosure cases
CBS News) Banks so poorly handled documentation on millions of mortgages that many today cannot prove that they own the homes they want to foreclose on. The resulting rash of lawsuits from people seeking to save their homes has one of the government’s top banking regulators worried that the torrent of litigation will delay the real estate market’s recovery.
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Chair Sheila Bair tells Scott Pelley banks should be forced to contribute billions to a clean-up fund that will help stressed homeowners stay in their homes and stave off lawsuits – there are 30,000 already – that threaten the economic rebound. Pelley’s report on this latest chapter in the incredible mortgage meltdown story will be broadcast on “60 Minutes” Sunday, April 3 at 7 p.m. ET/PT.
