@Kris Haskins  - I've just read the actual indictment fully:http://mortgagefraudblog.com/wp-content/uploads/20...It would appear that the 5 defendants involved, actively & knowingly participated in the creation & submission of false & fraudulent documentation to secure the short sales - 9 counts of fraud in total, and it would further appear that they were aware of their actions.There also seem to be issues with "declared relationships" (which is interesting as it could pose problems for wholesalers with relationships with realtors finding the short sales on their behalf).

@Peace Lily Either of them can put a lien on your house and you will then have to defend yourself.

Not to defend Brian,  I don't have any idea who he is.    

masscourts.orgwill tell if anyone has been in mass court (housing) as plantiff or defendant

Turns out it was an Application for Inspection Warrant, and whoever's name was on the document had to be in court on Jan 31st to defend it.

Not sure how you would defend yourself with that.

The only time we really see people start to jump out is when someone continues to defend a poor choice.

@Robert LeonardI love it when people defend their position with "because" rather than law.We cover 7 jurisdictions and in all 7 this is bad advice. 

This is enough to defend my structure should the need arise.

The order gives the previous owner/defendant a 30 day stay before the plaintiff can get a writ of possession.
