Anybody have insight about clearing titles?

I have a house I'd very much like to purchase but there a complication : This house was foreclosed on. The proceedings went through as normal but the commissioner forgot to close escrow after the case was resolved. 

Now the title officer said they won't insure it. Because the escrow was not closed ( within 30 days ) they think it's outside their expectations. 

To make this work I need clear title at some point in the near future. As I have cash for the purchase price I can buy but I would need to be able to get title insured - what are my options?

Can I foreclose on the property again /(other other legal action) or is there a lenient title company out there I don't know of yet? There is nothing else wrong with the title it's just a paperwork technicality.

Thanks - I really can't tackle this one on my own and appreciate your help
