Just another way to keep you out of the loop…what is wrong with these judges and why do they protect the banks?
Ahh…remember these cases didn’t go well for the banks/servicers.
Las Vegas Sun-
A district judge has ruled that records of the state’s foreclosure mediation program are not open to public inspection.
District Judge Todd Russell said this program was placed under the Nevada Supreme Court and the state’s public records law does not apply to the court.
Civil Rights for Seniors, a nonprofit group, filed suit saying it wants to inspect the records to determine if the program has had any success.
The Legislature created it in 2009 during the time Nevada led the nation in foreclosures. It establishes a chance for a homeowner having trouble paying his mortgage to meet with the lenders and with a mediator to determine if there are alternatives to losing the home.
Judge Russell said the judiciary “as a separate branch of government, has the inherent authority to manage its own records and dictate their disclosure.”
