INSTRllCTIONS ON HOW TO COMPLETE THE Cvv'ER
SHEET
To Plaintiffs and Others Filing First Papers. If you are filing a first paper·(for ::elcamplei.ia"1:!omplaint) in a civil case, you
must complete and file, along with your first paper, the Civil Case Cover Sheetcontainect. age 1. This information will be used to
compile statistics about the types and numbers of cases filed. You must complete items 1 through 6 on the sheet. In item 1, you
must check one box for the case type that best describes the case. If the case fits both a general and a more specific type of case
listed in item 1, check the more specific one. if the case has multiple causes of action, check the box that best indicates the
primary cause of action. To assist you in completing the sheet, examples of the cases that belong under each case type in item 1
are provided below. A cover sheet must be filed only with your initial paper. Failure to file a cover sheet with the first paper filed in a
civil case may subject a party, its counsel, or both to sanctions under rules 2.30 and 3.220 of the California Rules of Court.
To Parties in Rule 3.740 Collections Cases. A "collections case" under rule 3.740 is defined as an action for recovery of money
owed in a sum stated to be certain that is not more than $25,000, exclusive of interest and attorney's fees, arising from a transaction in
which property, services, or money was acquired on credit. A collections case does not include an action seeking the following: (1) tort
damages, (2) punitive damages, (3) recovery of real property, (4) recovery of personal property, or (5) a prejudgment writ of
attachment. The identification of a case as a rule 3.740 collections case on this form means that it will be exempt from the general time-
for-service requirements and case management rules, unless a defendant files a responsive pleading. A rule 3.740 collections case will
be subject to the requirements for service and obtaining a judgment in rule 3.740.
To Parties in Complex Cases. In complex cases only, parties must also use the Civil Case Cover Sheet to designate whether
the case is complex. If a plaintiff believes the case is complex under rule 3.400 of the California Rules of Court, this must be
indicated by completing the appropriate boxes in items 1 and 2. If a plaintiff designates a case as complex, the cover sheet must be
served with the complaint on all parties to the action. A defendant may file and serve no later than the time of its first appearance a
joinder in the plaintifrs designation, a counter-designation that the case is not complex, or, if the plaintiff has made no designation, a
designation that
the case is complex. CASE TYPES AND EXAMPLES

5 THEORY OF PLAINTIFF'S CASE


6

7 11. The allegations contained in each previous paragraph

8 of this complaint are re-alleged and incorporated herein by

9 this reference.

10

11 12. On January 4, 2011, Defendants collectively conducted

12 a non-judicial foreclosure of the subject property in

13 violation of a Court Order. This brazen act is aggravated

14 by the recording of a knowingly false affidavit by


15 Defendant UTLS, attesting to the legitimacy of the sale.
16 The filing of false, phony and fabricated documentation and
17 affidavits is the regular business practice of all Defendants in the pursuit of
expeditious non-judicial

19 foreclosures.

20

21 l .5. it is the pattein alld busines::; pract.Lce uf DetendctnLt'


and their agents to colJectiveJy manufacture, create,

23 manipulate and forge documents and to submit false

24 declarations, in the pursuit bankruptcy relief and in


25 furtherance of the non-judicial foreclosure of California
26 real property, including Plaintiff's residence.

27

28
1 14. Without regard to truth, accuracy or the rights of

2 California home owners in financial distress, Defendants

3 and their agents engage in a pattern and business practice

4 (hereinafter "fraud practice") of creating and filing

5 fabricated 1) Substitutions of Trustee, 2) Notices of

6 Default, 3) Notices of Trustee Sale, 4) Assignments of

7 Deeds of Trust, 5) Trustee Deeds Upon Sale 6) bankruptcy

8 Proofs of Claim, 7) bankruptcy Exhibits and 8) false

9 Declarations furtherance of bankruptcy relief and the non

10 judicial foreclosure of California real property, including


11 Plaintiff's residence.

12

13 15. It is the pattern and business practice of Defendants

14 and their agents to utilize the services of "Robo-signer


15 companies" to more quickly and cheaply process thousands of
16 relief of stay motions and non-judicial foreclosure sales
17 without regard to truth, accuracy or rights of California

l C. home owners in financial distress. Defendants and their

19 agents incentivize said "Robo-signer companies for their speed and the volume of

cases processed, but not for the

21 truth anu accuracy of the documents arid decld1.ctt...ie;ns

cre;=ited.

23

24 16. Defendants' collective improper purpose in filing false documents and


25 declarations in this and other Bankruptcy\Foreclosure cases is to create the illusion of a
26 valid transfers or ASSIGNMENTS of a defaulted mortgage Note
27

28
"I j..,,,.,.,-,:-"·
't, 'k ., .. ,,.,-

1 toeither a static Mortgage Backed Security Trust ("MBST")

2 or a GSE Trust, after the trust is "closed out".

4 17. A MBST or a GSE Trust is a Real Estate Mortgage

5 Investment Conduit ("REMIC Trust"), as defined under the

6 Internal Revenue Code that acts as a tax-exempt investment

7 vehicle for the benefit of bond investors. As such and

8 pursuant to the laws under which the trust was formed, the

9 trust cannot generally buy or sell or accept assets into

10 its "trust corpus" after the X "closing out" date.

11 18.
This fraud practice provides Defendants three

12 significant financial benefits: 1) Defendants save costs

13 upon the creation of the trust by reducing the notary fees,


14 filing fees and administrative cost transferring each of
15 the estimated 5,000 mortgage loans pledged to the trust in
16 the manner specified in the trust investor prospectus and

17 disclosures.
The TRANSACTION STRUCTURE of the subject MBST

18 mandates the "true sale" of each loan up to three times, on

19 or about designated "closing date". The purpose of the multiple

transfers is to protect the investors and render

21 each of the Notes "bankruptcy rernot.e", in the event a loan

originator becomes insolvent.

23

24 19. This fraud practice provides Defendants a second


25 significant financial benefit: 2) Defendants reduce the
26 notary fees, turn times, filing fees and administrative
27 cost of establishing proper standing after default,
28 typically in bankruptcy and non-judicial foreclosure cases,
'I., ...,., ,
,..,.,.,..,r,n<

1 by creating the illusion of a singi : post-default loan

2 transfer. Rather than "prove up" an accurate chain of

3 title for each Note in default from originator to the

4 trust, Defendants' utilize "Robo-signer" vendor to

5 manufacture evidence purportedly establishing a post

6 default "assignment" from Originator to the trust, instead

7 of the three pre-default transfers required under the terms

8 of the trust disclosures.

10 20. This fraud practice provides Defendants a third and

11 most compelling financial benefit: 3) once a property is

12 liquidated, the consequences of a forced "repurchase" of a


13 defaulted loan by a Defendant from the trust investors is

14 forever eliminated. The phony "ASSIGNMENTS" offered by

15 Defendants, if accepted as true, constitutes an obvious


16 breach of the "representations and warranties" owed to
17 trust investors.
Once the properties are sped through the
Bankruptcy and non-judicial foreclosure process, the

19 Defendants effectively eliminated the risk of liability to Investors for Defendants'


failure to properly transfe1 the

n HJdli asset:::; lo the tr u;:;l dS pi tcheJ. The twu pliu!iy


ASSIGNMENTS recorded in this case are fraudulent documents

23 intended to deceive Plaintiff and speed up the liquidation


24 of the subject property in the name of the wrong party.

25

21.
With billions of dollars in potential "repurchase" exposure to Investors and GSE's for
27 breaches of the "representations and warranties", Defendants have made a
28
1 business decision to proceed with tEls less expensive

2 "fraud practice". It is cheaper for Defendants to defend

3 lawsuits related to this fraud practice, rather than face

4 lawsuits against deep pocketed trust investors for breaches

5 of the "representations and warranties".

7 22. In this case, Defendants and their agents have


8 initiated and conducted a wrongful non-judicial foreclosure

9 of the subject note and deed of trust secured by

10 Plaintiff's residential real property.


11

12 23. Defendants will presumably continue to rely on the

13 fraudulent "ASSIGNMENTS OF DEED OF TRUST" recorded to

14 establish standing in bankruptcy and to pursue foreclose.


15 Plaintiff asserts that Defendants and their agents have
16 filed fraudulent and false documents in the Official

17 Records of the County so as to facilitate the wrongful non

iS judicial foreclosure of this and other California

19 properties.

n L4• An ASSIGNMENT itself is legally ineffective tu facilitate a Note transfer.


In California, it is we]1

23 settled law that mortgage notes are negotiable instruments


24 that are conveyed by endorsement, delivery and acceptance.
25 The execution of an ASSIGNMENT without the transfer of the

26 underlying mortgage note is a legal nullity.

27

28
.... J"""'...,.,,.
. ,.,, ... ,...,..,,.

1 25. California appellate courts ha.ve ruled that the

2 ASSIGNMENT OF DEED OF TRUST alone, without negotiation of a

3 note, is invalid as it ignores California property law, the

4 adopted provisions of the U.C.C. and the terms of the

5 subject Pooling and Servicing Agreement of a trust.

7 26. The fraud perpetrated by Defendants and their agents

8 upon Plaintiff is not unique, nor did it occur in


9 isolation. Judicial Notice of the public filings of
10 hundreds of bankruptcy cases will prove that Defendants

11 have systematically engaged, and continue to engage in the

12 practice of creating fraudulent evidence on demand, so as

13 to facilitate wrongful bankruptcy relief of stay and non

14 judicial foreclosure. Plaintiff will demonstrate the


15 pattern of this fraud practice.

16

17 27. Such a fraudulent business practice has provided

18 Defendants and their agents with a massive cost savings

19 advantage over their legitimate competitors.

lb.
Deieridants' impruper s;ystern.i,: purpose in uti1izir1S:J
Robo-signers is to create and record false evidence on

23 title and in bankruptcy courts so as to speed up the

24 foreclosure process, to rapidly liquidate real property, to


25 permanently cut off property rights and, most importantly,
26 to avoid liability to bond investors for Defendants'
27 failure to properly and timely transfer mortgage Notes

28
"·i ...............
"' .... ,.,

1 pledged to the trusts or GSEs in th -manner dictated by the

2 warranties and representations of an investment trust.

4 29. Defendants and their agents have collectively failed

5 to properly transfer and account for thousands of mortgage

6 Notes, including Plaintiff's, pledged to the trusts or

7 GSEs, within the timeframe contemplated by the trust and

8 for the benefit of unknown bond investors. The cost of

9 transferring thousands of mortgage notes multiple times was


10 apparently too high for the said Defendants to incur.

11 Millions of dollars in filing fees, notary fees, recording

12 fees and labor costs were saved when said Defendants

13 neglected the obligation to properly convey mortgage Notes,

14 multiple times, before the specified "closing date".

15

16 30. Instead, Defendants and other parties created their

17 own system and placed reliance on the electronic database

]8 of the Mortgage Electronic Registration System ("MERS")

19 The purpose of MERS is to electronically track which


20 mortgage note belongs to which mortgage backed trust.
21 H0weve1., the Ml::R ; system llci:::; 111, legal me1it ano ign01e::; U1e

historical doctrines of property transfer law in California

23 and the other states.

24

25 31. In response to wide spread defaults, Defendants seek to systematically mitigate


26 liability to the trust investors and GSEs by accelerating bankruptcy relief and wrongful
27 non-judicial foreclosures. Said Defendants utilize the
28
-'I I • • r"f
"<\ .,.,,..'if""

1 services of Robo-signer companies charged with

2 manufacturing evidence on demand and without regard to the

3 truth of mortgage note ownership.

5 32. The purpose of this widespread fraud is to facilitate

6 relief from the automatic stay and expedite wrongful non-

7 judicial foreclosure.
To facilitate this purpose,

8 Defendants have collectively engaged in a pattern of

9 unlawful, unfair and misleading business practices in

10 violation of California Business and Professions Code

11 Section 17200.

12

13 33. Defendants have conspired to make intentional

14 misrepresentation to Plaintiff and the Bankruptcy Court.

15

16 34. Defendants thereafter sold the subject property in

17 direct defiance of the Bankruptcy Court's order and

lP thereafter, conveyed the property title to Fannie Mae.

19

This systematic abuse by Defendants has caused

21
Plaintiff dllO others tc lost: muney, Lu itiCUl.. atLuuiey fees,

tc lose credit worthiness, to be forced to file bankruptcy

23 and to defend the wrongful foreclosure of their home.

5 37. 4/2/2007, ORIGINATION OF SUBJECT LOAN: It is


6 undisputed that the subject loan and deed of trust was
7 originated by Plaintiff and Defendant FIRST HORIZON HOME

8 LOAN CORPORATION and recorded in the Official Records of

9 the County of SAN BERNADINO on 4/2/2007. The named Trustee


10 is also FIRST HORIZON HOME LOAN CORPORATION.
11

12 38. It is undisputed that Plaintiff defaulted on the

13 subject loan obligation. At no time did Plaintiff receive

14 any notice of a transfer of ownership of the Note, as

15 mandated by Section 131 of the TRUTH IN LENDING ACT.

16

17 39. 2/6/2009, NOTICE OF DEFAULT [EXHIBIT 1]: Defendants

18 caused a NOTICE OF DEFAULT ("NODn) to be filed in the

19 Official Records of the County of SAN BERNADINO. Said document was signed
by MICHAEL LITEL for AUTHORIZED SIGNATURE, LANDAMERICA

ONESTOP, INC.. The NOD i11cluded a


DECLARATION OF COMPLIANCE illegibly signed by an unknown
23 person. There is no record that LANDAMERICA ONESTOP, INC.
24 was ever substituted in as Trustee. Plaintiff contends
25 this NOD document is therefore defective.

26

27 40. 4/12/2010, RECORDING OF ASSIGNMENT OF DEED OF TRUST


28 #1 [EXHIBIT #2]: Defendants caused a fabricated ASSIGNMENT
.,,, .... " ·
. ,,. -•...,>ti'

1 OF DEED OF TRUST to be filed in the-bfficial Records of the

2 County of SAN BERNADINO (ASSIGNMENT #1). Said document


3 purported to assign the deed of trust and "together with
4 the promissory note secured by said deed of trust and also
5 all rights accrued or to accrue under said deed of trust"

6 to FIRST HORIZON. As originator, FIRST HORIZON was already

9 Investors.
Rather than properly transfer mortgage notes to

10 Investor Trusts, Trust sponsors and document custodians cut

11 corners to save costs. As a result many notes were

12 shredded or lost.
