16.

Plaintiff engaged in a purported mortgage loan transaction with Defendant BAC on or On or about August 27, 2010, Plaintiff received a notice alleging default on the loan. On

about December 5, 2007. (a copy of which is attached herein marked Exhibit A). 17.

or about August 31, 2010, Defendant QLS recorded a Notice of Default signed by Anselmo Pagkaliwangan as an employee of QLS as agent for beneficiary BAC. This NOD was sent prior to the QLS Substitution of Trustee. A new NOD should have been filed. (a copy of which is attached herein marked Exhibit B). 18. On or about October 1, 2010, Defendant BAC executed and recorded an Assignment of

Deed of Trust from PRLAP, Inc. The assignment was signed by a person alleging to be Tim Bargenquast as the AVP for QLS and constitutes a conflict of interest. This alleged AVP is a known robo-signer and has been implemented in many wrongful foreclosure cases within Federal and State court actions. (a copy of which is attached herein marked Exhibit C). 19. On October 12, 2010 Defendant OLS recorded a Substituion of Trustee was signed by Tim Bargenquest in the capacity of Assistant Vice President for QLS and as attorney in fact for attorney in fact for BAC Home Loans Servicing,LP . Tim Bargenquest was not employed by BAC or a true

beneficiary under the Deed of Trust on the property. Bargenquest was employed by QLS, but was not an officer of QLS. QLS or Bargenquest did not have legal interest in the Deed of Trust on the property. 20. QLS substituted itself as trustee for the sole purpose of foreclosing on plaintiffs property.

This substitution was signed by Tim Bargenquest as Assistant Vice President of QLS on behalf of BAC Home Loans Servicing, LP. (Debtors counsel is perplexed as to Quality Loan Servicing Corporations ability to self appoint itself as the trustee.) (a copy of which is attached herein marked Exhibit D). 21. One or about December 3, 2010, Defendant QLS recorded Notice of Trustees Sale. The

NTS is defective. (a copy of which is attached herein marked Exhibit E). 22. At the time of the notice of default and notice of trustee sale, Plaintiff was in the military

service of the United States as defined in section 511 of the Servicemembers Civil Rights Act (Title 50 Appendix of the United States Code, 50 App. U.S.C. 501 et seq.) and entitled to benefits of said Act. 23. On or about May 31,2011, Defendant QLS recorded an Assignment of Deed of Trust to

Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, signed by Karla Sanchez, Assistant Secretary for QLS in violation of the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act (SCRA) section 302 and section 306 (50 U.S.A. App. 536). (a copy of which is attached herein marked Exhibit F). 24. On May 31, 2011, QLS recorded a Trustees Deed Upon Sale to FHLM, this TD was signed

by Karla Sanchez, as Assistant Secretary for QLW. Karla Sanchez is a known robosigner employee of QLS. Karla signed and recorded over one hundred Trustees Deeds Upon Sale in the Los Angeles County Recorders Office and in many of them the signatures appear ver y different. Defendants knew or had reason to know that the documents were robosigned (or forged), containing false claims or were otherwise invalid. 25. Defendants BAC and QLS violated SCRA by conducting a non judicial foreclosure on

Plaintiffs property and failed file a affidavit that the borrower in default was in the armed forces. The foreclosure therefore is voidable 50 USC. App 521(b)(2). 23. Plaintiff is informed and believes, and on that basis alleges: On or about August 27, 2010,

as instrument number 20101317862 defendants QLS AND BAC or some of them, caused to be recorded a notice of default and an election to sell in the Official Records of the City and County of Los Angeles, California, alleging that (a) a breach of an obligation secured by the Trust Deed had occurred, consisting of plaintiffs alleged failure to pay certain monthly installments of principal and interest, and (b) defendants, QLS elected to sell, or cause to be sold, the plaintiffs Property to satisfy that obligation. That notice of default and election to sell was void and ineffective for each of the following reasons:

(i) The Servicemember's Civil Relief Act 2003 (SCRA) was signed into law on December 19, 2003, and codified at 50 USC App. 501 et seq. The SCRA was December 10, 2004. 26. The Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 (HERA) also amended several sections

of this law, extending the time period for certain activities. HERA was amended by the Helping Heroes Keep their Homes Act of 2010 to further extend protections related to mortgages and foreclosures through December 31, 2012. It also established the premise that a person has a private right of action for violation. 27. The SCRA provides a wide range of protections for individuals entering, called to active

duty in the military, or deployed servicemembers. It is intended to postpone or suspend certain civil obligations to enable service members to devote full attention to duty and relieve stress on the family members of those deployed servicemembers. A few examples of such obligations protected against are: Outstanding credit card debt Mortgage payments Pending trials Taxes Terminations of lease. (ii) when the notice of default was recorded the Plaintiff was a Servicemember and a non judicial foreclosure occurred in violation of SRCA. (iii) the act provides that Servicemembers receive a stay, postponement, or suspension of his or her obligations or liabilities. 28. During the pendency of Plaintiffs Bankruptcy, defendant FHLM in bad faith sought relief from the bankruptcy courts automatic stay by filing a motion for relief from stay w ith no true evidentiary support and knew they were in violation of the SCRA. 29. In engaging in the conduct described above, defendants acted maliciously, willfully and

with specific intent to injure Plaintiff and endanger his property. 30. Plaintiff is informed and believes, and on that basis alleges, that strict compliance with

SRCA has been violated. 31. Defendants herein, and none of them, and no person acting or purporting to act for any of

them, made any of the diligent efforts mandated by the SRCA and California Civil Code 2923.5, wherefore the aforesaid Notice of Default was void or voidable, as a matter of law, and any purported future foreclosure predicated thereon will be unlawful, and likewise subject to avoidance. 32. Plaintiff is informed and believes and thereon alleges, that an actual controversy exists

between Plaintiff and Defendants with regard to the validity, nature and extent of their interests in the

COMPLAINT JURY TRIAL DEMANDED - 5

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28

Property, and it is necessary that this Court determine the actual rights and obligations of the parties and make a determination as to the validity, nature and extent of Defendants interest in the Property. 33. Plaintiff is informed and believes and thereon alleges, that in committing certain acts herein

alleged, some or all of the Defendants herein named were acting as the agents, joint ventures, partners, representatives, subsidiaries, affiliates and/or employees of some or all of the other Defendants, and that some or all of the conduct of such Defendants, as complained of herein, was within the course and scope of such relationship. (Property) 33. The SCRA covers all Active Duty servicemembers, Reservists and the members of the

National Guard while on active duty. The protection begins on the date of entering active duty and generally terminates within 30 to 90 days after the date of discharge from active duty. 35. Plaintiff demands strict compliance with SCRA, specifically Section 533 (c ) of the SCRA,

50 U.S.C. app. 533 (c ). 36. 37. No full accounting was ever provided in support of the alleged default. Defendant QLS lacked standing and is not the holder in due course or the current

beneficiary as falsely asserted. 38. Defendants BAC and QLS can not prove foundation, standing or authority to bring an Defendant BAC is only the alleged "servicer" of the loan, and as such cannot institute or

action of foreclose without filing a judicial foreclosure proceeding. 39.

maintain a foreclosure proceeding without proper authority from the true holder of the note. 40. Defendants, BAC and OLS, failed to determine consistently and accurately the military

status of Plaintiff in foreclosure. As a result, Defendant wrongfully foreclosed without court order on Plaintiffs property and in violation of Servicemembers Civil Relief Act (SCRA) section 302 and section 306 (50 U.S.A. App. 536). 41. Plaintiff in this case is a Servicemember and is asserting her rights under Service members

Civil Relief Act (SCRA). 42. The Plaintiff is a service member who owns the property, who at the time, were on military

service, or were otherwise protected by the SCRA, and who had originated the mortgage before Plaintiff entered into military service. Further, the Plaintiff had not waived her rights prior to foreclosure pursuant to a separate agreement under Section 517 of the SCRA, 50 U.S.C. app. 517. 42. Defendants, BAC and QLS failed to conduct a judicial foreclosure in compliance with

Section 521 of the SCRA.

43.

Defendants conduct was intentional, willful and taken in disregard to the rights of the

Plaintiff as a servicemember. 44. Defendants had actual or constructive notice of military service of the military plaintiff who Defendants conduct was in violation of the protections afforded by the SCRA, specifically

owned the subject property. 45.

Section 533(c ) of the SCRA, 50 U.S.C. app. 533(c ) and constitutes a pattern or proactive of foreclosing on service members during a period of military service, or a period otherwise protected by the SCRA. 46. Service members whose mortgages have been wrongfully foreclosed in violation of the SCRA are aggrieved persons. Plaintiff has suffered as a result of Defendants conduct. 47. Defendant FHLM knew Plaintiff is a member of a protected class and filed a motion for

relief from stay to evict Plaintiff from her home in violation of the SCRA. 48. Defendant FHLM knew Plaintiff is a member of a protected class and violated Section 301 -

Evictions and distress. a) Court Ordered Eviction. (1) IN GENERAL- Except by court order, a landlord (or another person with paramount title) may not(A) evict a servicemember, or the dependents of a servicemember, during a period of military service of the servicemember, from premises-(i) that are occupied or intended to be occupied primarily as a residence; and (ii) for which the monthly rent does not exceed $2,400, as adjusted under paragraph (2) for years after 2003; or (B) subject such premises to a distress during the period of military service. 49. The Servicemembers Civil Relief Act, or SCRA, provides critical additional consumer and other protections to the men and women serving our nation in the military it was a recognition that those who are making great sacrifices to protect us deserve to know that we have their backs at home. 50. The law postpones, suspends, terminates, or reduces the amount of certain consumer debt

obligations so that members of the armed forces can focus their full attention on their military responsibilities without adverse consequences for themselves or their families. This means that a soldier wont have to worry that his or her car will be repossessed while theyre on the front lines overseas. It means that instead of worrying that their spouse and children will be evicted while theyre deployed, they can focus on the critical role they play in protecting our nation. 51. Among these protections is a prohibition on foreclosure of a servicemembers property

without first getting approval from the court if the servicemember purchased the property prior to entering military service.

In civil case number CV11-04534, United States v. Bank of America Corp., Citibank, NA,

JPMorgan Chase & Co., Ally Financial, Inc. and Wells Fargo && Co. (D.D.C.) On March 12, 2012, the United States, forty-nine states and the District of Columbia filed a complaint and five proposed consent orders in United States v. Bank of America Corp., Citibank, NA, JPMorgan Chase & Co., Ally Financial, Inc. and Wells Fargo & Co. (D.D.C.). Under the consent orders, which still must be approved by the court, the nation's five largest mortgage loan servicers will conduct reviews to determine whether any servicemembers have been foreclosed on either judicially or non-judicially in violation of the SCRA since 2006, and whether servicemembers have been unlawfully charged interest in excess of six percent on their mortgages since 2008. As a result of these settlements, when combined with the Division's settlements with Bank of America and Saxon covering non-judicial foreclosures filed in 2011, the vast majority of all foreclosures against servicemembers will be subject to court-ordered review. Foreclosure victims identified through these reviews will be compensated a minimum of $116,785 each plus any lost equity with interest, and victims of violations of the SCRA's six percent interest rate cap identified through these reviews will be compensated by the amount wrongfully charged in excess of six percent, plus triple the amount refunded, or $500, whichever is larger. 53. These agreements were incorporated into an historic mortgage servicer settlement between

the United States and 49 state attorneys general and these five servicers, which provides for $25 billion in relief based on the servicers' illegal mortgage loan servicing practices. 54. Although BAC entered into a SCRA global servicing agreements with the United States,

BAC continued to violate SCRA provisions and have not investigated the illegal foreclosure of Plaintiffs home. 55. Plaintiff alleges that the Defendants and each of them, in so acting in this case and with

respect to many other mortgage or trust deed security instruments engage in a pattern and practice of utilizing the non-judicial foreclosure procedures of this State to foreclose on service members properties when they do not, in fact, have the right to do so, knowing that the property owner affected is a service member and is protected by the SCRA as an aggrieved person. 56. Should Defendants, and each of them, not be enjoined, Plaintiff will suffer irreparable injury

for which there is no adequate remedy in law. 57. Defendants and each of them, in committing the acts alleged in this and other cases are

engaging in a pattern of unlawful activity. 58. As a result thereof, Plaintiff has been damaged by these Defendants and each of them.

Plaintiff has been damaged in other ways that are not readily apparent at this time, but will amend this

complaint to allege further damages as they are determined. 59. In pursuing non-judicial foreclosure, Defendants and each of them are in violation of the

SCRA, specifically Section 533 (c ) of the SCRA, 50 U.S.C. app. 533 (c ). 60. The defendants and each of them, misrepresented the facts intending either to force Plaintiff

to pay large sums of money to Defendants and each of them to which there not entitled under the law, or to abandon Plaintiffs property after wrongfully foreclosing on plaintiffs property. 61. Plaintiff makes no admissions unless expressly admitted herein. FRAUDULANT ASSIGNMENT OF THE DEED OF TRUST 62.

QLS and BAC participated in a fraudulent scheme to foreclosure on Plaintiff property and knew

73.

COURTS HAS THE INHERENT POWER TO VACATE A FORECLOSURE SALE It is the general rule that courts have power to vacate a foreclosure sale where there has

been fraud in the procurement of the foreclosure decree or where the sale has been improperly, unfairly or unlawfully conducted, or is tainted by fraud, or where there has been such a mistake that to allow it to stand would be inequitable to purchaser and parties. 74. Clear Title May Not Derive from a Fraud (including a bona fide purchaser for value). In the

case of a fraudulent transaction California law is settled. The Court in Trout v. Trout, (1934), 220 Cal. 652 at 656 stated: 75. "Numerous authorities have established the rule that instruments wholly void, such as an

undelivered deed, a forged instrument, or a deed in blank, cannot be made the foundation of a good title, even under the equitable doctrine of bona fide purchase. Consequently, the fact that defendant BAC acted in good faith in dealing with persons who apparently held legal title, is not in itself sufficient basis for relief." (Emphasis added, internal citations omitted). 76. This sentiment was clearly echoed in 6 Angels, Inc. v. Stuart-Wright Mortgage, Inc. (2001)

85 Cal.App.4th 1279 at 1286 where the Court stated: 77. "It is the general rule that courts have power to vacate a foreclosure sale where there has

been fraud in the procurement of the foreclosure decree or where the sale has been improperly, unfairly or unlawfully conducted, or is tainted by fraud, or where there has been such a mistake that to allow it to stand would be inequitable to purchaser and parties." (Emphasis added). 78. Any apparent sale based on fraud, or altered and forged instrument should be void and

without any legal effect. 79. In Bank of America v. LaJolla Group II, the California Court of Appeals held that if a

trustee is not contractually empowered under the Deed of Trust to hold a sale, it is totally void. Voidness, as opposed to voidability, means that it is without legal effect. 80. 81. Title does not transfer. The property is not sold. PROPERTY TAKING RAISE FEDERAL QUESTION 81. Plaintiffs urge by the filed Complaint and will urge at trial, that the acts surrounding the illegal

24 25 26 27 28

foreclosure was rife with corrupt acts violating federal laws and state law were fraudulent, unenforceable, et al, and that the procedural acts leading up to and including the improper foreclosure on plaintiffs property were done ILLEGALLY. Moreover, the Plaintiffs urge that QLS is NOT a party with standing to bring a foreclosure action

which extensive discovery hereafter, shall reveal. 82. Here, the question of taking without due process by acts of defendants is in issue. The

generalized federal nature of such a taking has precedent. See Grable, supra. CONCLUSION 83.

It is not sufficient to allege it in general terms, or in terms which amount to mere conclusions.' 'The elements of fraud, which give rise to the tort action for deceit, are (1) misrepresentation (false representation, concealment or nondisclosure); (2) knowledge of falsity (or "scienter"); (3) intent to defraud, i.e., to induce reliance; (4) justifiable reliance; and (5) resulting damage.

my property is protected by Section 533 (c ) of the SCRA, 50 USC app. 533(c );and I am entitled to a minimum compensation as specified in the agreed Order in United States vs. Bank of America for being a victim of illegal foreclosure in violation of SCRA, 50 USC app. 533(c );according to a settlement reached on March 13, 2012, between the United States and Bank of America and other mortgage lenders and servicers in case number CV11-04534-PA filed on May 25, 2011. Please your Honor, allow me to have my day in Court so I can keep my home where my family and I live. I am not a deadbeat and I am not seeking a free house however, I am praying for justice.
