Recently, the news has exposed the unfair, unlawful, and fraudulent business practices of large financial institutions, which are rampant in today’s economic climate.
The local television news aired a story in late December about a lady who was awakened by someone breaking into her home and discovered it was the bank.
My children and I have faced similar battles in our fight against eviction.
We filed a civil lawsuit, May 27, 2010, as In Pro Per Litigants against a bank who claimed they purchased my home at a foreclosure sale and presented a Trustee’s Deed naming them as the new owner as of July 13, 2009. They actually were not the new owner, which I didn’t discover until the following December. The previous September, a “Corrective Trustee’s Deed Upon Sale” had been recorded, naming another bank as my true landlord.
Believing I had “Tenant Rights” according to Title-VII, the Protecting Tenants at Foreclosure Act of 2009, SEC. 702 and the Los Angeles Rent Stabilization Ordinance and taking a strong position against eviction resulted in the bank retaliating and subjecting my children and I to civil harassment and an overwhelming amount of grief in an attempt to force us to move involuntarily.
The harassment went from an overwhelming amount of frivolous notices and escalated to stolen mail, unannounced home visits from strangers, a home break-in, vandalism, stalking, lawsuits against my children and I. I even called the police out to my home on an incident and received no police protection.
Through it all, I got ill with both upper body pain and diagnosed with anxiety disorder. I received medical and psychiatric attention and was prescribed medication—which I no longer need—to continue fighting for my children’s and my rights.
In our civil case, there are four other defendants who conspired with the bank and I recently added the actual new owner who is responsible.
Experienced attorneys have teamed up against my adult daughter and I. The defendants have no strong defenses, so they choose to respond with a demurer, a motion to strike, or a motion to quash.
Having no law experience, I have been very busy researching and preparing oppositions supported by the California Code of Civil Procedures and Case Law.
During my court experiences, my assigned Judge has been prejudiced in her treatment toward us, and it appears to be progressively intentional, designed to make sure we lose our physical and emotional abilities to seek justice. Immediately upon observing this injustice, I filed an “Affidavit of Prejudice Peremptory Challenge to Judicial Officer” giving the Judge the opportunity to voluntarily take herself off my civil case. She denied the request.
Also, I hand delivered a letter I wrote to the Presiding Judge of the Court. As a result, I received a letter in late December from the Assistant Presiding Judge-Elect informing me that my letter has been forwarded to the Supervising Judge of the Civil Courts and she will be contacting me directly to address my request regarding assigning a new judge to my case. On January 12, 2011, the Supervising Judge wrote me a letter stating “I will be looking into the matters raised in your letter and will be responding to you in the near future.”
I am fighting for and my children’s and my rights and equal justice for all. The fight continues.

Mr. M.A. Currie, I hope you can get justice as soon as possible. Be fighth
This is definitely worth reading, it contain many useful information.
Although we usually hear about foreclosure affecting the owners of properties, there are many times when renters get caught in the middle. As a renter, you do have rights and with foreclosures being at an all-time high, it’s important to know what those rights are.
If you are a tenant living in a property that is being foreclosed, you may be affected even though you may have a lease. In fact, at some point, you may even receive an eviction notice. This is definitely a cause for concern but be aware that even though you don’t own the property you do have rights.

Stopping foreclosure and preventing eviction is the major concern of any homeowner who is about to lose their home. Today with so many foreclosures on homes the major concern for any homeowner who finds them self in a financial difficulty is to protect their home from foreclosure and save their family from eviction. The housing market is starting to improve along with the job market which is giving hope to many homeowners. It is still expected that millions of homeowners may still lose their homes in foreclosure.
Under the opinion that the homeowners are still trying to get out from under the failing economy and make some headway the government feels that they should still keep the Loan Modification Program active in order to stop so many home foreclosures. Stopping foreclosure while preventing eviction is the concern of banking and lending institutions as well, that is why they are willing to work with the homeowner to find a solution to the foreclosure problem.
