I am especially calling on all the attorneys out there who see what is happening on a daily basis and who understand just how profoundly wrong this all is to dig deep and to make contributions.  You have a professional responsibility to your clients and to our profession to take a leadership role here.

GET IN THE FIGHT AND GET YOUR FRIENDS, FAMILY AND CLIENTS INTO THIS FIGHT IN A VERY REAL AND PRACTICAL WAY.

MAKE THAT CONTRIBUTION.

I had my back up against a wall going into a summary judgment hearing yesterday because my client had been convinced by the lender that he should ignore me and stop working with his attorney to try and protect his case.  The lender assured him that they would work things out so he didn’t need to respond to my letters and emails.

He finally came to me just before the hearing and I was scrambling to put together my defense when local Foreclosure Fraud Fighter Mark Stopa sent me an email reminding me that these foreclosure mills cannot rely upon affidavits of attorneys fees to establish those fees, the expert testifying to those fees must be in court in person.  I attach the case law on both that issue and the other issues I was prepared to argue below:

Attorney’s Fees

Thankfully we didn’t even get that far in this hearing because in this circuit, the judges are very serious about devoting adequate time to argue summary judment when the issues are contested.  I hear these horror stories about Rocket Dockets elsewhere and it just blows my mind because I have only had one Summary Judgment hearing where I felt like I was not being given adequate time or my arguments not being seriously considered.  I reported that defeat, but I am most pleased to report that I had that reversed on rehearing.  The care taken by the judges in this circuit shows that highest level of judicial discretion that we should expect in every hearing, in every courtroom across the state.

Anyway, much thanks to Mark Stopa for sharing his good work.  Mark is a tenacious and very good attorney who is not at all willing to back down from a big fight...I encourage you to visit his website here.

Finally, let me again encourage each of you to visit Dan Gelber’s campaign page, and particularly look here at his issues section for detailed information about mortgage fraud and fights.

We can make a difference in this race, but every single one of you needs to sign up, sign on and make your voice heard in this campaign.  When you are frustrated, overwhelmed and feel helpless, channel that energy into something that might actually be useful, like volunteering for his campaign or at least sharing your concerns on his Facebook page here.

This site averages several thousand unique hits every single day.  I constantly review the site stats and the geographic reach of those who are following the page in order to monitor the reach and impact.

My sole purpose in creating this blog is to spread the word, assist consumers and protect our courts from the unprecedented attacks that the foreclosure crisis represents.  I appreciate all of the positive feedback I receive from each of you and know that the pleadings, Orders and other detailed and technical information has proven very valuable to each of you.  Now I want each one of you to give something back.

I IMPLORE EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THE THOUSANDS OF YOU TO VISIT DAN GELBER’S CAMPAIGN FOR ATTORNEY GENERAL PAGE BY CLICKING THE LINK BELOW

Dan Gelber for Attorney General

Please spend time on his page and pay particular attention to the “Issues” tab.  You will note that Gelber already indicates issues relating to mortgages are some of his key concerns.  Please also note Gelber’s strong focus on rooting out public corruption.  I believe we have a real opportunity to make an impact in this election, so I want each and every one of you to log onto his site and register as a supporter.  Also, go onto Facebook and become a supporter there.

PLEASE DO THIS TODAY, RIGHT NOW, IMMEDIATELY

Gelber’s Facebook fan page lists only 1,539 members.  If only a small portion of those of you that follow this blog will log on and become a fan of his campaign, this number can increase dramatically.  I want each of you to log onto his page and send his campaign a message about foreclosure fraud and abuse.  Share your stories on his wall.  Ask that he continue to make this a high priority in his campaign.  Ask that he take a keen interest in the failures that are occurring in our circuit courtrooms.  Ask him why these Fat Cat Wall Street bankers are being allowed to run roughshod over our state.

I’m going to monitor Dan Gelber’s Facebook page carefully.  I would consider it a personal favor if each of you would respond to this request and make a post on his wall.

The upcoming election will be important for us all, but for those of us in the foreclosure fight, the most important race to watch will be for Florida’s Attorney General.  The Attorney General of Florida is this state’s top law enforcement officer.  The office is currently investigating a whole range of improper and probably illegal conduct that is being conducted on a wide ranging basis by the foreclosure mills.  These investigations will continue regardless of who wins the race for attorney general, but  how hard these investigations are pressed can be influenced by YOU!

The abusive conduct that is being engaged in by a whole host of players is being ignored by judges, the Florida Bar and just about anyone else in a position of power who could be standing up to fight for Floridians, but at least Florida’s Attorney General is showing some concern about this incredible abuse of the legal system. After last week’s primary races, there are two candidates for Attorney General and one of these candidates will be elected come November.  The two candidates are:

Pam Bondi

and

Dan Gelber

I want each of you to visit the websites above and carefully review each candidate’s profile and position statements.  In reviewing the websites, I am most encouraged by Gelber’s attention to the mortgage crisis because it at least shows this is on his radar screen.

Here is what I want all of you to do…..write to each of the candidates and express your concern about the foreclosure process.  Tell your personal stories and ask the candidate to express strong positions on the abuses of the foreclosure mills.  We need to get them locked into positions now so that they cannot be influenced by the foreclosure mills and their cash later down the road.

JOIN EACH ONE OF THE CANDIDATE’S FACEBOOK PAGES AND AGGRESSIVELY REACH OUT TO THEM.  IF YOU HAVE CASH TO SPARE, PLEASE CONSIDER MAKING A SMALL CONTRIBUTION TO THE CAMPAIGN.

SPEND A FEW MOMENTS OUT OF YOUR TIME TO GET ON THE RADAR SCREEN OF THESE CANDIDATES.

GETTING INVOLVED IN THESE RACES IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING WE CAN DO TO INFLUENCE THE FORECLOSURE PROCESS.  PLEASE POINT TO THIS THIS WEBSITE  AS GENERATING INTEREST IN THIS CAMPAIGN AND BE PREPARED TO GET AGGRESSIVELY INVOLVED!
