Yeah, the court ignores lawful defenses and fraud and your client is railroaded, but your clients aren't you and so not your problem. It's your ability to make money from your clients' problems and then kick them to the curb without any concern on your part that makes you the superior and professional attorney.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19039943.post-82577254978703657032022-07-12T13:34:32.133-04:002022-07-12T13:34:32.133-04:00Non payment of the mortgage removes all constituti...Non payment of the mortgage removes all constitutional protections? <br /><br />What other area of law removes all constitutional protections just because the guy did it? <br /><br />If cops and prosecutors can’t lie and introduce false evidence in courts under the constitution, why should banks get a free pass?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19039943.post-37263914008938352482022-07-10T16:22:05.130-04:002022-07-10T16:22:05.130-04:00I have read at least one 3d DCA opinion that gave ... <br />I have read at least one 3d DCA opinion that gave ample reason to get Mr Jacobs in trouble. What I saw in all his troubles is something that I have experienced: a lawyer who got enmeshed in his client's case, and utterly lost any perspective. Happily, I did not suffer any consequences from the Bar, but I have learned not to become enmeshed. Mr. Jacobs's practice put him in a position to become enmeshed in many cases; he needed to step away from the personal angst suffered by those who did not pay, and he has never been able to do so.<br /> This is a danger that I think sole practitioners can especially succumb to. I have seen criminal defense lawyers who seemed to have taken on their client's case to a dangerous degree. No one forced the defendant to indulge in criminal behavior; the lawyer can only do his/her damnedest to get due process for the client. <br /> Similarly, in foreclosure cases, into many of which I have delved deeply, the homeowner has failed to understand that they signed a contract, from which they got many dollars as their benefit, but they have to pay it back. If doing so means they have to take a second job to make those payments (as I have done), so be it. <br /> I have great sympathy for the people who attempted to "modify" the terms, and were told, again and again, to re-submit documents they had already sent in. Relying on "modification" was never a good option, but even if it stalled collection, it was never a "get out of [payment] free card." Why would I care who holds the paper? It is on the homeowner to pay the mortgage; that responsibility never left him/her. <br /> Important fact for Florida homeowners: let the credit cards go unpaid; all the creditor can do is get a money judgment. Always pay the mortgage; as a homestead owner, your home is safe from collection of such a judgment or any lien on your home; it is immune from forced judicial sale, under Florida's constitution. But non-payment of the mortgage removes that constitutional protection. <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19039943.post-16698302415518234812022-07-02T23:12:55.953-04:002022-07-02T23:12:55.953-04:00Reminded me of Al Pacino's "And Justice F...Reminded me of Al Pacino's "And Justice For All" circa 1980 or thereabouts, civil foreclosure version.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10049613824954912814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19039943.post-2967447540454167382022-07-02T22:42:17.793-04:002022-07-02T22:42:17.793-04:00Exactly.Exactly.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10049613824954912814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19039943.post-67549704324456787262022-07-02T21:07:48.625-04:002022-07-02T21:07:48.625-04:00"Chill and watch the bears dude."

We have a constitution and we have rules of evidence. Those should not be violated simply because a defendant is actually guilty or a borrower may not have paid the mortgage. What about statute of limitations? A harsh remedy, right? Applies in every case which is codified, even when there is a heinous crime, or a dr.’s negligence causes a death, but the courts carved out an exception in foreclosures as well. Banks, and second mortgages which were sold at Pennies on the dollar, are now foreclosing seeking interest for as far back as 2008. Some of those homeowners were given 1099’s to pay taxes in the written off loan when they modified their first mortgages. No bank to be found for years. Now banks are able to collect every single penny of interest, without any authentication of prior servicer récords and after the original banks received tax benefits for the write offs.<br />Jacobs approach is contrary tk what most would do, but having evidence of fraud and faced with most judges having the same mentality as 8:47, then getting sanctioned for raising the arguments, can drive many people to do things they wouldn’t normally do.

Fabricating positions for anonymous clerical document processors to present them as vice-presidents of major banks and swearing under oath that they have personal knowledge of debts for which they have no knowledge whatsoever are not "technical errors." That is fraud and perjury.<br /><br />The courts' attitude seems to be that if the defendant owes a mortgage, it doesn't matter who sues them or if who sues them can even prove they own the mortgage or fulfill the legal steps required to prove every other kind of debt.

Take a look at the Calloway case and it’s progeny regarding the exceptions to hearsay. All of the foreclosure hearsay cases conflict with Yisreal, but hey the borrower didn’t pay their mortgage so it doesn’t matter if a bank uses fraudulent documents or fails to lay the predicate for any of the alleged prior servicer records. Look at the opinions on foreclosures from the Third. If the criminal defense bar thinks the PCA is abused in criminal cases, just check the cases on Wednesday’s and go through the pca’s. If s borrower wins, the cases get reversed, bank wins=PCA. Jacobs has unfortunately let the frustration get the best of him and apparently seeing the writing on the wall is not going to go down without a fight. While I don’t agree with it, I understand it.

He makes posts about his various undertakings and cases. <br /><br />Bruce is an opponent of corruption in Wall Street. As someone who has been a customer of the major financial institutions and also spent many years working behind a cubicle in some of the largest, I can tell you that there is plenty of corruption to fight. I have 0 doubt that this corruption extends to the court system. I have zero doubt that lawyers working for major Wall Street banks deliberately commit fraud. I have zero doubt that they procure perjured testimony. I have zero doubt that in many cases involving a Wall Street bank as a plaintiff, the defense counsel and/or the judge is paid off. I have met one lady online whose case screams of Wells Fargo paying off the judge in her wrongful foreclosure case. <br /><br />If this sounds far fetched to you, it’s because you don’t know these people the way that I do. I am saturated with how they work, as a customer, an employee, and a victim. These people behave as if the law doesn’t exist. They are brazen like nothing you have ever seen. <br /><br />I hope Bruce wins his fight. It shouldn’t be taboo to put judges and plaintiffs and plaintiffs’ counsel under the microscope.
