BOMBSHELL- It Was Improper to Charge For Service of Process on People That Did Not Exist….

From the way, way back machine in foreclosure fraud and abuse….comes an old, old story…apparently breathed into a new life….
Of course, nothing will ever come of this……
A foreclosure law firm violated state law by charging homeowners for summonses served on ” John and Jane Doe” and other unknown parties who may have claims on the property, a Palm Beach County judge has ruled.
It is common practice for law firms to serve foreclosure paperwork on homeowners, as well as separate summonses for ” unknown tenant,” or ” unknown spouse,” even if the borrower is single and is not renting out the property. The borrower is usually billed for the additional summonses at about $45 each.
Law firms have said the practice is necessary because they need to sue every person or entity who may have a claim on the home in order to ensure clear title at the end of the suit.
