Brief Description:

Petitioners Sharon Wise and Blossom Nihipali signed a mortgage and promissory note secured by real property in favor of Flexpoint Funding Corporation. Respondent Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems (MERS) was listed on the mortgage as “nominee.” Subsequently, the mortgage and promissory note were transferred to the JP Morgan Chase Bank. Thereafter, MERS initiated a judicial foreclosure action in the first circuit court alleging that Petitioners had defaulted on their mortgage.

Subsequently, MERS secured entry of default against Petitioners, and on May 12, 2010 the court entered final judgment against Petitioners and appointed a commissioner to sell Petitioners’ property. Petitioners then moved to set aside the defaults. On April 29, 2011, the court issued an order confirming the sale of Petitioners’ residence, and on May 10, 2011, the court denied Petitioners’ motion to set aside the defaults. Petitioners appealed to the Intermediate Court of Appeals (ICA), arguing that MERS lacked standing to bring the foreclosure action.

The ICA affirmed the court’s orders, holding that ratification by Chase pursuant to Hawai`i Rules of Civil Procedure Rule 17 cured any defect in Respondent’s standing. In their Application, Petitioners ask whether the ICA erred in holding Chase could ratify Respondent’s standing when Chase did not demonstrate that it held the mortgage and promissory note when MERS brought the foreclosure action, and thus, was the real party in interest.

    So much for , We the people it is more like we the banks and judges can do what ever we want to the people, legal or not. They are raping Americans when the illegally foreclose. The real sickening part of these parasites bankers is the sold these properties the they securitized them, they were paid, then they were paid again when the homeowner defaulted on payment, they were paid by insurance co., like AIG. Then they were paid again by the tax payer when Obama gave them stimulus money and these greedy parasites want more, UNBELIEVABLE.

    I betting these are some of Washington Mutual Bank (WaMu) government insured loan that Wells Fargo was servicing and have been illegally foreclosing them while making False Claims to the United States as if they actually owned the loans.

    Wells Fargo trick the county land recording offices into allowing these fake assignments to be recorded, with using the phase lawful holder while making it appear as they are the “holder in due course” which is the actual owner of the debt!

    Now that its been exposed that JPMorgan did not purchase these loan from WaMu and the loan belonged to Fannie, Freddie and Ginnie pools, that put Wells Fargo in the position to bring proof forward that they purchase the loan from WaMu as there is not proof because it never happen.

    I told Wells Fargo back in the summer of 2010 before I realized all these that their crime against me was turning a million problem to a billion problem, and within a few months I put together what exactly happen!

    Every single loan has the same footprint were the Note are all still blank years after the foreclosure!
