Florida Notary Fraud Erin Cullaro – Scandalous – Substantiated Allegations of Foreclosure Fraud That Implicates the Florida Attorney Generals Office and The Florida Default Law Group
Pay attention all!

Originally posted LAST MARCH!
We
have been sitting on this information for some time now due to ongoing
investigations but since the cat is out of the bag here we go…
Over at Matt Weidner’s Blog
He reports on the transcript and motion from a hearing held in a Volusia County Courtroom from Ice Legal.
Bombshell- Substantiated Allegations of Foreclosure/Affidavit Fraud That Implicates the Florida Attorney General’s Office
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, the attorneys at Ice Legal
may be the most aggressive and hard charging Foreclosure Fraud
Fighters in Florida. When this whole system comes crashing down and
when judges and the Florida Supreme Court put an end to the systemic
abuses of the court process being perpetrated by the foreclosure mills,
the attorneys at Ice Legal will rightly take their fair share of the
credit.
Attached here is a must read Motion along with a copy
of a transcript from a hearing held in a Volusia County Courtroom.
The Motion lays out a very disturbing set of allegations…
This
is a foreclosure action filed by WELLS FARGO BANK, NA (the “BANK”).
The BANK is represented by Florida Default Law Group, P.L. (“FDLG”).
On behalf of the BANK in this case, and on behalf of other clients in
other cases, FDLG filed affidavits to establish that the attorneys’
fees it was allegedly paid were reasonable. The affidavits purport to
have been executed by Lisa Cullaro, the appointed expert on attorneys’
fees. The notary who allegedly administered the expert’s oath and
vouched for her signature was Erin Cullaro, a former employee of FDLG
and now an Assistant Attorney General in the Economic Crimes Division
of the Office of the Attorney General.
4closureFraud here…
Economic Crimes Division. The same Economic Crimes Division that investigates firms like the FDLG?
What is it that William Black said?
“The Best Way to Rob a Bank Is to Own One“
Well How about this…
“The best way to stop a criminal investigation is to become one of the investigators“
Not
only was Erin just a former employee, it looks like she was one of the
lead counsel for Michael Echeverria, the owner of FDLG (Florida Default Law Group)
Just recently their website http://www.echevarria.com/AttorneyProfiles.htm went “offline” but Google cashed version is here…
I also archived it here…

The
public records request also revealed that Ms. Cullaro completed a
“Request for Approval of Dual Employment” (From the Florida Attorney
General’s Office) in which she certified that her secondary job
notarizing documents “does not create a conflict of interest (as
specified in Chapter 112, Part III, Florida Statutes) nor the
appearance of impropriety…” Ms. Cullaro’s dual employment was limited
to Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays between 7:00 p.m. to 7:15 p.m. Defendants
proffer that they will show affidavits executed on days other than
those approved by the Office of the Attorney General and that travel
records suggest that Ms. Cullaro would have not been present in Florida
on the date and time that an affidavit was notarized.
Here are the signatures to compare…

Focusing
just on Erin Cullaro, the sampling of her alleged signatures below,
demonstrate remarkable differences. And while, she proffers that she
has abbreviated her signature over the years, the sampling reveals
that more than one “abbreviated” signature has appeared over her
signature line.
Indeed, if the signatures are fraudulent, proof
of the intent to defraud may well hinge on the fact that these
signatures were on documents used as summary judgment evidence in a
court of law.
In any event, not all the signatures in Defendants’
collection are from affidavits. Obviously, Defendants should be
permitted to inquire as to the obvious differences in signatures
purporting to be that of the witnesses, regardless of where those
signatures were made.
So the allegations made in this Motion are
that Affidavits are being submitted in courtrooms across the state
and Ice Legal questions the veracity of those affidavits.
- They have compared the alleged signatures and do not believe the signatures were made by the person allegedly signing.
- They have compared dates and determined that the Affiant or Signer was not in the state on the date of the alleged signing.
- An
attorney who works in the Office of the Florida Attorney General is
executing documents that are being used to take homeowner’s homes from
them. - Allegations of foreclosure fraud permeate the entire
foreclosure case file in the form of other questionable documents,
affidavits and assignments.
Why isn’t the Florida
Attorney General’s Office doing more to protect citizens from
foreclosure fraud and foreclosure rescue fraud?
And now the
bombshell….Florida Default Law is fighting like bloody hell not to have
these depositions taken….they’re filing Motion after Motion and have
made it quite clear that they have no intention of ever letting these
witnesses be sat for deposition.
What does it say about how
deep this rabbit hole goes when attorneys are refusing to answer any
questions relating to evidence they created and have filed in
courtrooms across the state?
What does it say when attorneys
are ignoring court orders to have their depositions taken after a judge
has heard their objections and found them without merit?
What
does it say about how many layers their are on this stinking onion
when the Florida Attorney General’s Office is implicated in
allegations of fraud on the Courts of this state?
You cant make this stuff up folks. This is better than a Steven King Novel!
IT
IS TIME FOR A STATE WIDE INJUNCTION ON ALL FORECLOSURES UNTIL ALL OF
THE FRAUDS THAT HAVE BEEN REPORTED ON THIS BLOG ARE STOPPED AND THE
PARTIES THAT HAVE PERPETRATED THEM ARE PROSECUTED!!!

federal charges against all involved in this massive Ponzi scheme they
must be deemed intentionally complicit.

LINK - Action Alert – Please tell President Obama NOT to sign the Interstate Recognition of Notarizations Act
Action Alert – Please tell President Obama NOT to sign the Interstate Recognition of Notarizations Act

On Monday, September 27, 2010, U.S.
Senator Bob Casey (D-PA), on the Senate floor, asked that the Judiciary
Committee be discharged from further consideration of a bill that would hurt consumers.
H.R. 3808 requires federal and state courts to recognize notarized
documents from other states, including ones that contain electronic
notarizations that are not subject to the same consumer safeguards of
documents notarized in person. Some financial institutions are using electronic notarizations to process home foreclosure documents.
Sen. Casey asked that the Senate
move forward with immediate consideration of the bill with unanimous
consent that the bill pass with no other action or debate. The Senate
passed the bill without amendment by unanimous consent. It now sits on
the President’s desk. I’m asking you to email or call the President at 202-456-1111 to ask him not to sign the bill.
H.R. 3808 is known as the
“Interstate Recognition of Notarizations Act.” It passed the House
under a suspension of the rules in April 2010. It requires federal and
state courts to recognize any notarization that is lawful in the state
where the notary is licensed. Now, in one day, it passed in the Senate.
When I learned of it last Thursday,
it sounded innocuous to me, but then I started looking at the timing of
the bill. GMAC, owned by Ally, had just suspended its foreclosure actions in 23 states, including Ohio. I had already referred Chase Home Finance, LLC, on August 23, 2010, to the U.S. Department of Justice,
asking it to review and investigate Chase’s document notarization
practices in home foreclosures (18,000 documents per month were being
notarized by 8 people, along with other irregularities). I license notaries in the State of Ohio. Even though I don’t have the power under state law to investigate or prosecute, I couldn’t stand idly by without acting. That’s why I’m asking you to email or call the President at 202-456-1111 to ask him not to sign the bill.
Last Wednesday, the day before I announced the DOJ referral, JPMorgan Chase announced it was having third party counsel review its document procedures for foreclosures. Just two days before, the U.S. Senate had rushed through H.R. 3808. Something didn’t seem right. Since then others agree with me.
Notarizing a document requires the
signer to make a fundamental statement, an acknowledgment, before a
notary public. It is used for documents of great sensitivity or value,
like when the title of a car is transferred on its sale or when a bank
tells a court how much is owed on a note for a mortgage when it wants
to foreclose.
Some states have adopted “electronic
notarization” laws that ignore the requirement of a signer’s personal
appearance before a notary. A notary’s signature is that of a trusted,
impartial third party, whose notarization bolsters the integrity of the
document. Many of these policies for electronic notarization are
driven by technology rather than by principle, and they are dangerous to consumers.
President Obama was presented with HR. 3808 on Thursday, September 30, 2010. As of today, he has not signed the bill. Please join me in urging him not to sign the bill by sending an email or calling the White House at 202-456-1111.
Mortgages are now being used as backing for securities traded all over the world by financial institutions.
When a mortgage goes into default, a “chain of title” (list of its
owners) must be created. It’s being discovered that many financial
institutions have taken shortcuts in creating lawful chains of title
that allow them to foreclose and take homes when they would not
otherwise have the right under the law.
Banks demand we follow every letter of their contracts We must demand they follow the law. It’s that simple. Please join me in urging President Obama not to sign the bill by sending an email or calling 202-456-1111.
Thanks for working together,
Jennifer Brunner
Ohio Secretary of State

So, how can someone working for the crime office of the Attorney General's office have a "part time job" that consists of 15 minutes 3 days a week? Yet, in those 15 minutes, 45 minutes total, be responsible for notarizing hundreds of thousands of documents.
This is the equivalent of the Mafia hiring on someone who works for the Director of the FBI for 45 minutes a day to provide legal counsel.
No conflicts of interest? Hmm... I guess when the Mafia is a bank, the mob here is legitimized.
This is the State of Florida you're talking about here, CIA scam capital of the world!
They probably are using it to fund a coup somewhere.
Punta Gorda is not a scam. We exist.
It's called "Fark." Drew somebody or other. He has a separate place for "Florida." It's like its own little world down there. BRING IT!
Just take what you want and leave the rest. If it's good enough for them, it's good enough for me.
Laws are made for serfs, not masters.
Well......
It seems that the within the last five years or so, the Florida Legislature passed a law stating that if a mortgage was sold in the course of a business agreement/contract/sale, that it was unnecessary to have the mortgage note assigned and recorded at the county level. Which deprives the citizens of Florida of necessary income from State Doc Stamps and County Recording Fees, thus shifting the burden of government onto the the masses as opposed to the wealthy banks and real estate investment firms. In addition, the Florida Legislature ALLOWED the mortgage document fraud to exist by NOT REQUIRING recorded documents.... as was set forth by the Florida Statues for decades. Not only is the Federal government taking individual rights, the State governments are giving them away. The Constitution has been raped. We, the citizens stand amidst the bloody mess wondering who and why.
"Streamlined" foreclosure laws in Colorado did the same thing to their citizens.
Don't be too bent about the recording fees, though. The five bucks to record an assignment would probably not cover the cost of the extra clerks it would take to process them. At least that's the case in the counties I've worked in.
I agree, though, that state legislatures have played fast and loose with our property for far too long. There was a good reason notices were recorded, sent by certified mail and posted on the premises.
To record an assignment of a mortgage cost $30. $30 times the number times a mortgage changes hands adds up to a lot of dough. Doc Stamps were assessed at $1 per thousand, for our $385K house, that adds up to $385. Pretty soon, we start talking real money, especially in a housing boom.
We were all sold out. In the 70's Florida had usury laws that declared that no Florida resident could pay over 12% in annual interest fees by penalty of law. Our Florida legislators did away with the usury laws so that credit cards could go nationwide....what they didn't expect was 29.99% interest rates that followed.
The bank lobbists come into town; wine dine and sometimes 69 our politicians and the people get sold out.
Yes, I believe that a second revolution is coming. I think it has started. When people decide that being at home is more important than buying stuff and making a credit card payment, the big banks will fail. After all, how many flat screen tv's can you consume on credit.....eventually you move on. When banks figure out that people will default....eventually they move on.
Also makes it impossible to find out who has your mortgage.
Is there anything that has a sense of "professionalism" and "proper conduct" anymore?
I am becoming 'demoralized" by this, and cannot believe this is as widespread as it is. Why even try to "play by the rules"? You lose everytime you play by the rules. Insanity abounds. NOTHING is done correctly and nothing is apparently done to either legal standards at a minimum or professionals standards at a medium!
It this what our society has become? Cheating, law breaking, get yours a screw everybody else???
I sent off an email to the White House. This is OUTRAGEOUS.
This shitstorm is bigger than it looks, since the defects in the foreclosures are not, as the MSM is trying to say, merely due to the fact that people are swearing to the accuracy of documents they cannot possibly have read (this is the MSM spin). The problem is with the content of the allegations, to wit, that the plaintiff owns the freaking note and is entitled to pursue the remedies when in fact they do not. This is not only about defective foreclosures, it is about defective, "empty" MBSs which were never properly formed to begin with! The notes and mortgages were never properly transferred into these REMIC vehicles - they are empty! Think about the numbers if this is an epidemic. Never mind the percentage of bad loans - there are no loans at all inside these monstrosities.
the rabbit hole of fiction and fraud. aka finance,
ongoing.
FI.R.E.
"It this what our society has become? Cheating, law breaking, get yours a screw everybody else???"
It is not so much a reflection of society ( yet ), just a reflection of the widespread corruption in politics, world government and the world banking/financial services cartel.... Society will catch on eventually and join in, I suppose.
for two full years i did nothing except write daily letters to the colorado attorney generals the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), colorado FBI, all departments overseeing mortgage brokers, title insurance companies, appraisers, realtors. i wrote a letter a week to chase home finance. i wrote the governor of colorado. i had hard evidence of fraud. nobody wants to know. it is not in their best interest to go after these fraudsters. i spent thousands in fedex shipping and faxing. it is just wasted money. the problem is, the people getting screwed don't have any money to hire an attorney and quite frankly i went through about 6 attorney's until i got an honest one that believed i had sufficient grounds for a lawsuit. i have 8 counts of fraud that the judge accepted against the seller's of a property i bought and now adding the realtor, going to trial.
At what point do people just stop paying taxes en masse?
The system 'is' the enemy.
yes, when will we starve the beast?
It never hurts to let them know you're watching. Call the White House and tell Barry not to sign H.R. 3808. Contact your local media(radio and TV) and tell them to talk about these stories. Email your family and friends with links and tell them to do the same.
This shit is widespread because fat lazy slob citizens sit on their asses watching football and Idol instead of kicking down the doors of elected officials. Then when it's time for action they whine into their nuclear orange Cheeto fingers about how unfair it is, and how one person can't make a difference. I mean seriously, we're going to let Europe out-shine us in the protest and rebellion department?!
Good point.
No bitching without getting involved.
Pass it on.
Also make sure to see and tell your friends about the new documentary Inside Job.
