Bank of America Seattle Calls 911 on SAFE, KingCast & Mortgage Movies: "You're the Emergency!"

24 December 2013 update -- 
Jane Mair received a Temporary Payment Plan from BoA. Details to follow.

I told the bank manager with all due respect that perhaps the real emergency is the bad faith HAMP negotiations and inability to prove actual standing to foreclose on all of these properties. Meanwhile the branch manager put her hands on me for no lawful reason and did further assaults SAFE in Seattle members who were reading demands upon the bank. Lady, you are not the police so keep your hands to yourself. If I have to tell you again it's going to wind up in Court, and I can have you there in a city minute. Are we clear? 

Meanwhile Jane Mair's negotiations have halted with no word from BoA this week, in direct contravention to what was promised last week. Time will tell, always does. Remember to run a Google search on "Jane Mair + BoA" and you'll see all of the video updates from this fall to present. Here's a video capture of Miss Manners herself.

KingCast and Mortgage Movies See WA Attorney Jeff Jared Join Financial Revival Group and Speak on Mortgage Foreclosure Law.

Attorney Jared and I concur that the developing law in this area -- particularly in Washington -- parallels the growth of Civil Rights Law in previous decades. When the banks come after you don't panic. Just outsmart them and walk away with significant chingy in your pocket, instead of their measly $3K "cash for keys" or "Deed in lieu" nonsense. FRGI Facebook.

Mortgage Movies Sees Northwest Trustee Services Shut Down at Auction by SAFE in Seattle Protesters.

What's the only thing better than having KingCast video your wrongful foreclosure or mod closure protest? Having King5 show up and do the same while protestors chant loudly enough to dissuade bidders and shut down the entire auction. From Linda Brill's story published 6 Dec. 2013 regarding 74 year-old Mila Dolan's Renton area home:

RENTON, Wash. -- A retired nurse and her son, an unemployed computer programmer, watched on Friday as their home was about to he sold at auction. The family bought the Renton house in 2006 and got caught up in the housing bubble and foreclosure. Now, their dreams are about to burst.

"We're going to be homeless. We're going to be homeless." said Mila Dolan, who came to watch the auction. "We've been hustled from bank to bank to bank. It's insane. The greed is rampant at our expense."

A group of protesters stood behind her and her son, George Karpinski, who lost his job three years after buying the home. "We're here to make our voices heard because it's not heard any other way. This is what we are down to."

Inside the Bellevue garage of Northwest Trustee Services, the auction was disrupted by protesters who shouted at potential bidders. One bidder, Gurpreet Marok, changed his mind.

"I probably won't bid today after seeing this," he said.

On George and Mila's home, $550,000 is owed, but the house is only worth $385,000. No one bid on the house that is currently owned by Deutsche Bank. "Probably, within 45 to 60 days they're going to start an eviction process, and that's just the way the law works." said Christopher Hall with Vestus Foreclosure Group. Mila and George returned to their home to wait for eviction to come. The loan on their house was sold several times to various banks. KING 5 made requests to some of the financial institutions involved in the foreclosure, but no comment has been received.show up to do the same. And last week that is precisely what happened.

Here at Mortgage Movies I work in collaboration with SAFE, Financial Revival Group and attorneys at the Jeff Jared and StafneTrumbull Law Offices as noted at this fall's Seattle City Council Candidate Forum. From protests to negotiation, to mediation and litigation one way or the other we're all trying to help homeowners when the banks don't do the right thing. In this instance I am personally coming to this one late in the game so I cannot comment much on it, but going forward I'll be learning the lay of the land here in Washington so we can get these cases properly referred to mediation, litigation or whatever remedies may be applicable.

KingCast, Mortgage Movies, Financial Revival Group, Jeff Jared, Esq., SAFE and Stafne Law Group Watch as Jane Mair's file goes in to HAMP review at BoA.

As Hilary said..... it takes a village -- that's Jane in my car on Monday coming back from her meeting with Stafne Trumbull, LLC -- in addition to me, we have had three other attorneys review this situation and make phone calls to BoA, in addition to all of the SAFE efforts and it is finally at a point where her loan mod application is in review. This is a screen capture from my video of her on the phone with Stafne lawyers leaving a message with BoA. So the Question then is how many protesters, housing advocates, city councilors, attorneys and videos does it take to get a modicum of Justice for people like Jane Mair? The Answer is.... we don't know yet. 

What we do know is that BoA manager Joseph Brown telephoned me from 805.917.0423 to inform me that he intervened and expedited underwriting review of her file and it is now off for HAMP and non-HAMP options. At the longest he estimated ten (10) days but thought he could push it through sooner as he noted the high visibility of this case. I didn't record him because I don't have to at this point. The wall of opposition has registered and we are all collectively being hear loud and clear. For your back story on how the sale date was finally extended to 17 Jan. 2014 read here and watch the video as I also note the Bad Faith Mediation Declaration that Wells Fargo took on the other property rather than offer up the Loan Mod that they should have. Well they are about to get a shocker when Jane gets new legal counsel to zealously represent her interests. Stay tuned.

KingCast & Mortgage Movies Observe Revere Neighborhood Developers: Asbestos & Still Dirty and Being Sued at 525 Beach Street.

I met up with Revere's Clifford Pisano and ACLU witness Wanda Strange today to discuss his newly re-filed employment lawsuit (more examples of Revere lawsuits and nigger talk here) and his ongoing litigation with "The Developers" (who have changed their name 3 or 4 times) relative to their history of malfeasance and coverup at the 525 Beach Street Development. Recall that the City allowed them to get this entire project through zoning and Site Plan Review without ever notifying the taxpayers. City Councilor Ira Novoselsky (seen below as taken today with video forthcoming) allowed this to happen; he knew about the testing all along so I say he might as well be on the take. I asked him if he was going to smack my camera again as he did in City Hall as seen on videos below, when that slime ball Miles Lang-Kennedy tried to make me turn my camera off when I complained about it to the City Solicitor.....

Among other things they are trying to usurp almost all of the walkway seen above, leaving just over two feet. This would require the Pisano family to convert to natural gas instead of the existing oil service at a cost of $20,000.00. It is my understanding that Mr. Pisano would settle this case for $7,500.00 were it not for the additional expenditure. Otherwise he demands $27,500.00. However, another proposal would leave more area for oil service and for the Pisano family to use the walkway for groceries and other ingress/egress as noted in pictures filed with the Land Court. Here is your back story; today's video coming, stay tuned. 

20 Dec. 2013 Update -- These liars send Mr. Pisano a letter about the 72-hour notification regarding "previously unknown" gasoline storage tanks. They were known well before the zoning and Site Plan Review process was completed so these people can go straight to hell, right.

16 Dec. 2013 Update -- New movie up! Also, a status conference hearing was held last week pursuant to a TRO and encroachment land use case. The Court deferred Judgment on any and all of that pending the Developers' Motion to Dismiss, which I don't believe has any merit whatsoever....... The Developer went and got Affidavits from Mr. Pisano's parents stating that they didn't give him permission to launch a Land Court case, but they had already given him permission to make arguments on this issue, and plus his mother is 79 and just had a stroke and his father is 89 years old.

Smells pretty shitty to me..... but the joke is probably on the Developer anyway because Mr. Pisano has an Adverse Possession claim as a tenant who maintained the area in question for the past 40 years, ab initio....  time will tell. There is a hearing on the merits scheduled for January if the case does not settle. The City has moved to dismiss too, even though they clearly climbed into bed with the developers such that the taxpayers never knew about the contamination. More on this soon.


UPDATE: Below the fold review the MGL 21-E 72-hour spill condition email from MassDEP Oil and Hazmat Director Steven S. Ross regarding # NE-13-07964 and database No. RTN 3-31887 that was issued the day after Clifford Pisano ran video and I made the above video.

Meanwhile below the fold see the gas tank that nobody wants to talk about at 525 Beach Street. They pulled it out at 7pm last night, under the cover of darkness because they and their "Superlawyer" Howard Brown got the whole project done without ever telling the public that there was any contamination there. He then threatened to have me arrested if I came to his office to interview him. Sounds more like super shitty to me. Douchebag.

Proof in 2011 that the City of Revere allowed a soup kitchen 

to be placed on land it knew to be contaminated.

Mr. Pisano reports that the file is now sanitized.

And the star of the show? Well it's the 2,000 gallon gas tank that Clifford Pisano and I said was still there 18 months ago.... only to have the city Fire Department, City Hall, the Revere Neighborhood Developers, Councilor Ira Novoselsky and Mass DEP cover all of this up while the City and Developers spread lies that it was removed in the 1980's. At left one can readily review the card I pulled from an honest City employee. But Mr. Pisano and his parents have lived right next door for the past 40 years so they knew better, and knew the land was CONTAMINATED even though this development went all the way through zoning and permitting without the taxpayers being informed.

So they go to dig it up at 7:00 p.m. on a Tuesday night 26 Nov. 2013 right before the Holiday, thinking that Mr. Pisano or I won't be around, know I moved 3,200 miles away and hoping they won't get caught. Well guess what? You goddamn scumbags are CAUGHT, even if local media like the Revere Journal and other major press lack the professional integrity to cover this. Video forthcoming and I am going to the Federal EPA on it now. My father retired as a toxicology research chemist (starting with Diamond Shamrock), and he made folks follow the law but when he was coming up he could never dare say what I'm going to say, which is this:

Fuck each and every one of you slapped my camera (City Councilor Ira Novoselsky), called the police on me (Mayor's lacky Miles Lang-Kennedy) or anyone else who let this happen. Yep. All of you cesspool-dwelling political wannabes jeopardizing the quality of life for profit. Remember the soup kitchen that was there? The City took all of this information out of the hard file but it's all going to be in the movie as released at the top of this page.

Note: The Name of the Day is now "The Neighborhood Developers," different name same shit. Some of you may recall that i have a background in property law and zoning, so I rode out to Revere MA not quite 2 years ago to do some research on a low cost apartment building at 525 Beach Street. Abutter Clifford Pisano and I determined that the city knew of contamination by virtue of the gas station card on file I pulled and by virtue of the fact that Councilor Ira Novoselsky was present at relevant developer meetings......
where it was discussed. But the City granted full permitting without anyone ever publicly revealing the actual results of the testing and the city and Mass DEP allowed all of this to happen without any taxpayer knowledge outside of what Mr. Pisano and I have posted. 

None of the other media will touch this even though I rolled video of some of them interviewing Mr. Pisano. Well bottom line is the Mr. Pisano has had to file a lawsuit again to halt the proceedings because he believes there is a trespass issue by virtue of 40 years of adverse possession on a walkway and further that OSHA and EPA mandates are not being followed. The Court set a hearing for Dec. 10 2013 but he is going back today Nov. 24 with a sworn affidavit to obtain an immediate TRO. Let's see how the Courts treat this pro se litigant who suffers from brain damage from being beaten and raped as a child. Background here.

Is this the cats meow or what, hence the 21-e law, gottem  dem sons o bitches

Clifford,

MassDEP Emergency Response Branch just received a notification from Licensed Site Professional (LSP) Peter Dechaves of McPhail Associates, LLC. of a 72-hour reporting condition resulting from the removal of two (2) underground storage tanks (USTs) yesterday afternoon and last evening from the above referenced location.

Please note that Complaint Number NE-13-07964 (the report I wrote for the information you provided to me this morning when you telephoned in to MassDEP regarding the UST) will now be handled as a formal release of oil to the environment pursuant to M.G.L. c. 21E and The Massachusetts Contingency Plan (310 CMR 40.0000) and logged into our system  under Release Tracking  Number (RTN) 3-31887.

According to LSP Dechaves, each UST had an approximate capacity of 1,100 gallons and each was believed to have contained gasoline.

I have logged LSP Dechaves’ notification into our 21E database under (RTN 3-31887) and have orally approved the following Immediate Response Actions (IRAs) to address the release of petroleum to the environment: (a) the excavation, proper management, transportation and disposal of no greater than two hundred (200) cubic yards of petroleum contaminated soil, (b) dewatering the open excavation via a vac-truck, on an as needed basis, to facilitate soil removal, and (c) site assessment activities designed to evaluate potential Imminent Hazard (IH), Substantial Release Migration (SRM) and Critical Exposure Pathway (CEP) conditions on site, as well as to define the nature and extent of contamination resulting from the release of petroleum to the environment from the UST(s).

LSP Dechaves informed me that the two USTs were located between the sidewalk and the facade of the building.  LSP Dechaves can be reached at 617-349-7343 in the event you have any questions for him regarding the project.

In the event you have any questions for me, please do not hesitate to call me at the telephone number listed below.

Wells Fargo Takes a Bad Faith Mediation Declaration + Jane Mair Fraudclosure Protest Picks up Steam as Bank of America Telephones KingCast/Mortgage Movies During Today's Protest!

JANE MAIR SALE DATE MOVED TO 17 JAN 2014!

After weeks of wrangling and yesterday's phone call with Financial Revival Group's 

Mediation Director Michelle Darnell, BoA lawyers have agreed to move this back 

so that we can have time to have her loan modification given Due Process.

I regret to say that I don't have video or audio from yesterday's call 

as we agreed not to record it just after I started. But it was epic.

MORE DETAILS BELOW, 

START WITH YESTERDAY'S FAX TO BoA.

********

Note above, what she sent already.... 

weeks ago pursuant to the letter she received immediately above. 

Then read the letter below. Apparently it is an auto-generated letter.

As Michelle Darnell and I telephone BoA to get proof in writing that they have requested legal to back off of the sale date of 13 December, 2013 BoA sends Jane Mair another form letter asking for information that she has already sent in. Unreal. So below see where BoA acknowledged receipt of the same items they are now seeking. The bullshit never ends with these people, so I think it is time to put Ms. Darnell in touch with Stafne Law Offices as they are diligent and the most experienced in terms of pre and post foreclosure litigation. As regards the top screen capture/photo, were not allowed to record yesterday's call so I had to shut down the Photo Booth but you can see the fax transmittal as sent to BoA. Meanwhile Stafne yesterday filed a U.S. Supreme Court Petition on Robertson v. GMAC, involving the remand of a foreclosure case removed to Federal Court when it is patently clear that State claims predominate. That is because the Federal Court loves to throw things out under Iqbal and Twombly, whereas the State Courts in Washington have been very progressive. It's basically forum shopping 101.

Wells Fargo loves Mortgage Movies Journal!

Also, I wonder what loan numbers and neighborhoods were part of Governor Gregoire's Statement of Charges (whoops these are Wells Fargo -- so much corruption going around I get lost sometimes -- the Countrywide Statement of Charges are here, and this Consent Decree between the State of Washington DFI and Countrywide/America's Wholesale Lender..... you know, it dealt with predatory and fraudulent practices in the minority and lesser-affluent neighborhoods.... like, you know.... where Jane Mair lives.

I wish I could say I actually saw the STOP sign as I took this picture but how apropos is it regardless..... plus the RESERVED designation in front of everyone..... the question is whether the negative space is reserved for Justice or for the global banking and economic tyranny so prevalent in the Post Glass Steagall era..... Hillary claims that it "takes a village" to raise a child; same is true about saving a home. Particularly in light of certain banking and economic initiatives espoused by her husband, ahem just saying.

If you want to see some of the history here just read the journal page from Wednesday or run her name in the search field, top left corner of the page. Here is the BoA rap sheet and please note that her loan "originated" with America's Wholesale Lender, a completely fictitious entity. Then ReconTrust was the Trustee..... they are a wholly-owned subsidiary of Bank of America that was ejected from Washington in a Consent Decree with the AG's office as noted at the link.

There is a lot of video on the subject and there is certain to me more, but hopefully not much more if you catch my drift. I'm sure Seattle City Councilor-Elect Kshama Sawant catches our drift; she sent supporters this evening and has been proactive in several foreclosure cases as documented here and at SAFE in Seattle Facebook page. So basically BoA returned my phone call to say that they have all of the information they need from Ms. Mair and it will be reviewed tomorrow or Monday and submitted for review with Fannie Mae as to setting up the temporary payment plan which then should lead to a permanent loan mod. I still advised her to lawyer up in case things go sour during the review period, which had damn well better be concluded by next Thursday because there are various deadlines running. More on this later.

Meanwhile I interviewed someone who witnessed Wells Fargo actually accept a Bad Faith Declaration in the Mediation at Jane Mair's other house. I wonder if this is the first such Declaration; I'll find out next week. They threatened to sue the mediator.... unbelievable the hubris of some of these corporate attorneys. It always amazed me as a Civil Rights lawyer to deal with some of the nasty ones..... where do they get it from, I wonder. Does it fulfill them in some way? I prefer to get along and work things out but I guess that's the Hippie Lawyer in me.

"The mediator was pissed off at them," she said. Stay tuned for video over the weekend because, well, yeah... that's what I do.
