18 Once again, Defendant Governor Katherine Brown fails to provide the Court with any
19 meaningful argument to support her motion to dismiss, ECF No. 22 and her Response to
20
Plaintiffs Objections To Findings and Recommendations, ECF No. 65.
21
Arguably, Oregon's liability begins with the principles of constitutional law and the limits
22
of Federal statutory liability announced in Adickes v. S.H Kress & Co., 398 US 144 (1970),

1 940-42 (1980); and Edmondson v. Leesville Concrete Company, 500 U.S. 614 (1991). See FAC
7 Defendant Governor Katherine Brown and the other Defendants have also failed to deny
8 the State of Oregon's role in the seizure of Plaintiffs home on July 3, 2018 through the agency of
9 Defendant Sheriff Reese by using ex parte default proceedings which were held to be a "nullity."
10
See ECF No. 53 at 3 and ECF No. 64 at 17.
11
In Adickes v. S.H Kress & Co., 398 US 144, 152 (1970), the Supreme Court held that the
12
involvement of a state official in a conspiracy with a private person:
13
"[P]lainly provides the state action essential to show a direct violation of
14
petitioner's Fourteenth Amendment equal protection rights, whether or not the
15 actions of the police were officially authorized, or lawful. (Citations omitted.)
Moreover, a private party involved in such a conspiracy, even though not an
16 official of the State, can be liable under § 1983. 'Private persons, jointly engaged
with state officials in the prohibited action, are acting "'under color'" of law for
17 purposes ofthe statute. To act "'under color'" of law does not require that the
accused be an officer of the State. It is enough that he is a willful participant in
18
joint activity with the State or its agents." (Citation omitted.)
19
The First Amended Complaint ("F AC"), properly understood, involves wealth, poverty,
20
fundamental interests and the intersection of constitutional due process, equal protection and
21
"state action."
22
24 Dismiss, ECF No. 22. Plaintiff filed a Response on March 1,2018, ECF No. 31.
25 Plaintiffs original complaint was filed and amended in State Court and subsequently
26
removed to this Court by the Defendants. In Ascon Properties v. Mobil Oil Co., 866 F.2d 1149,

1 1160 (9th Cir. 1989), the Court "stressed Rule 15' s policy of favoring amendments, and we have
7 that had rendered its ex parte Order of Default and Judgment of Default a nullity: "[b ]ecause the
8 trial court lacked jurisdiction to enter the General Judgment .... " See ECF No. 53 at 3 and ECF
9 No. 64 at 17.
10
On July 3, 2018, the State of Oregon, knowingly, intentionally and without lawful
11
authority, seized possession of Plaintiffs home and delivered possession to Defendant Deutsch
12
Bank, a private actor. After sending Plaintiff a notice to remove his personal and business
13
property from his home, Defendant Deutsch Bank has steadfastly refused to give Plaintiff access
14
16 Defendant Governor Katherine Brown argues that she is without power to prevent the
17 State's theft of Plaintiffs home through an unlawful conspiracy with private persons. This
18
reasoning was foreclosed in Adickes v. S.H Kress & Co., 398 US 144 (1970). This argument is
19
also odd given the fact that the State of Oregon declared a "foreclosure moratoria" during the
20
Great Depression in 1933 and 1934. See ECF No. 39 at 13-14.
21
Defendant Governor Katherine Brown can no longer rely on or "reincorporate her
22
23 arguments in support of her motion to dismiss," ECF No. 65 at 1, because it is undeniable that the
24 State of Oregon, through Defendant Governor Katherine Brown and Defendant Sheriff Reese,
25 rendered Plaintiff homeless on July 3, 2018, after Defendant Governor Katherine Brown filed her
26
motion to dismiss. This is a blatant affront to this Court's power and authority.

1 Defendant Governor Katherine Brown's further insistence that this Court adopt the
7 Magistrate's Report given the State's participation in an alleged conspiracy to steal Plaintiffs
8 home is reprehensible.
9 Moreover, it was essential that the State prove the existence of a valid debt before
10
participating in the unlawful conspiracy to seize Plaintiffs home and deliver possession to
11
Defendant Deutsche Bank. As the Supreme Court explained in Carpenter v. Longan, 83 U.S. 271,
12
274 (1872): "The note and mortgage are inseparable; the former as essential, the latter as an
13
incident." The Oregon Legislature did not "split" the deed of trust from the note/debt owed. See
14
16 Ifit was the object and intent ofthe conspiracy to seize Plaintiffs home and thereby
17 render "moot" the FAC and Plaintiffs motions, as stated by Magistrate Judge You, Ninth Circuit
18
precedents have held that certain exceptions should be applied, where, as here, legal violations are
19
capable of repetition.
20
Based on Gerstein v. Pugh, 420 U.S. 103, 110 n.11 (1975), the Ninth Circuit has held that
21
plaintiffs with mooted individual claims can maintain claims for injunctive relief where they "are
22
23 challenging an ongoing government policy." United States v. Howard, 480 F.3d 1005, 1010 (9th
24 Cir. 2007) ("Howard") (The case does not become moot ifthe policy is ongoing. The continued
25 and uncontested existence of the policy that gave rise to the legal challenges forecloses the
26
mootness argument), citing Oregon Advocacy Ctr. v. Mink, 322 F.3d 11 01, 1118 (9th Cir.2003).

1 The Magistrate Judge ruled as follows:
2 "For the reasons set forth below, defendants' motions to dismiss (ECF ##1-6,8, 14,
22,28,33,34,56) should be GRANTED, plaintiff's motion for summary judgment
3
(ECF #25) should be DENIED as moot, and this action should be DISMISSED
4 WITH PREJUDICE." ECF No. 60 at 3.
5 On April 20, 2018, Plaintiff notified this Court that the State Court of Appeals had issued a
6 ruling finding the Multnomah Circuit Court to have conducted ex parte default proceedings
7
without jurisdiction and that its rulings were a "nullity." See ECF No. 53.
8
No Defendant objected to the Magistrate's Findings and Recommendations before the
9
August 20, 2018 deadline, notwithstanding having actual notice that certain Defendants were
10
12 On July 3,2018, the State of Oregon, without lawful authority and pursuant to a
13 conspiracy, forcibly seized Plaintiff's home and delivered possession to its coconspirators. This
14
seizure arguably violated Amendments Fourth, Fifth and Fourteenth. Defendants Brown and
15
Reese made no effort to notify this Court of the State's unlawful seizure of Plaintiff's home and
16
the profound effect it would have on their motions to dismiss and the Magistrate's deliberations.
17
As will be further shown, this was fraud, which needs no definition. United States v. Milovanovic,
18
20 On June 28, 2018, the U.S. Supreme Court granted the petition for a writ of certiorari in
21 Obduskey v. McCarthy & Holthus LLP, Case No. 17-1307, reported in Obduskey v. Wells Fargo,
22
879 F.3d 1216 (10th Cir. 2018), which the Court linked to Greer v. Green Tree Servicing LLC,
23
Case No. 17-1351. The issue in both cases is: "Whether the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act
24
applies to non-judicial foreclosure proceedings."
25
The Federal trial court granted the motions to dismiss in Obduskey v. Wells Fargo, No. 15-
26
27 cv-01734-RBJ, 2016 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 103281 (D. Colo. July 19,2016). The court determined the

Vancouver, WA 98660
(971) 512-2917

1 mortgage servicer was not a "debt collector" under the FDCP A because the loan was not in
2 default when it began servicing the loan. The court also found the law firm's foreclosure
3
activities were "outside the scope of the FDCP A," relying upon what it described as the majority
4
view. Additionally, the borrower's claim against the law firm was determined insufficient to state
5
a claim under the FDCP A because it failed to allege the law firm "took any action to obtain
6
7 payment on a debt."
8 The borrower appealed. On January 19,2018, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Tenth
9 Circuit affirmed the District Court's decision. Obduskey v. Fargo, 879 F.3d 1216 (10th Cir.
10
2018). The court first agreed that the mortgage servicer was not a debt collector for essentially the
11
same reasons stated by the trial court.
12
The Court of Appeals next determined that non-judicial foreclosure proceedings are not
13
covered by the FDCPA, despite findings to the contrary by three other Circuits (the Fourth, Fifth,
14
15 and Sixth) and the Colorado Supreme Court. The borrower argued that the "ultimate purpose" of
16 any foreclosure action, including non-judicial, is repayment of money, relying on a decision from
17 the Sixth Circuit. Disagreeing, the Tenth Circuit explained that a non-judicial foreclosure is not an
18
attempt to collect money since it "does not preserve to the trustee the right to collect any
19
deficiency in the loan amount personally against the mortgagor," as distinguished from a judicial
20
foreclosure. However, any deficiency is waived by the creditor when electing to pursue
21
foreclosure without judicial assistance. The law is the same in Oregon.
22
23 It is further axiomatic that: "The note and mortgage are inseparable; the former as
24 essential, the latter as an incident." Carpenter v. Longan, 83 U.S. 271, 274 (1872). In Sovereign v.
25 Deutsche Bank, 856 F. Supp. 2d 1203, 1214 (D. Or. Portland Div. 2012), this Court held that:
26
"Simply put, the security interest embodied in the trust deed follows any transfer of
27 the note in favor of the lender and its successors, such that the trust deed does not

1 become split or separated from the note." See Plaintiffs Objection No.3 in ECF
No. 62 at 16-19; FAC paragraphs 52-56 at 13.
2
3 Under both Carpenter v. Longan and Sovereign v. Deutsche Bank, the existence of a valid
4 "debt" necessarily controls the security instrument/mortgage/deed of trust and any rights the
5 holder of the original note might have, including standing to sue on the note or foreclose on the
6
deed of trust.
7
Such was the case in Beckhuson v. Frank, 97 Or.App. 347, 775 P2d 923 (1989), an action
8
which was brought on a promissory note in Multnomah County Circuit Court. On appeal, the
9
Court held that the trust deed securing the note did not limit remedies on default of the note and
10
11 that ORS 86.735(4), since renumbered ORS 86.752(7), permits a trust deed beneficiary to sue on
12 the note and thereby waive his priority and security, or he may foreclose on the deed of trust and
13 waive his right to collect a deficiency. "The statute precludes an action on the debt only after a
14
trustee's sale or a judicial foreclosure," Beckhuson at 351, citing Siuslaw Valley Bank v. Canfield
15
Assoc. Ore. Ltd., 640r.App. 198,202,667 P.2d 1035 (1983). See Plaintiffs Objection No.3 in

ECF No. 62 at 16-17.

Beckhuson v. Frank and the above cases make clear that a mortgage loan secured by a

deed of trust creates an election between two causes of action, both of which are subject to
5
unlawful conversion and are further governed by ORS §§ 80.010 and .020. Community Bank v.

The Supreme Court's grant of certiorari in Obduskey v. McCarthy & Holthus LLP, Case No. 17-
11
1307, reported in Obduskey v. Wells Fargo, 879 F.3d 1216 (10th Cir. 2018), raises additional
12
issues whether the sale of Plaintiffs horne and Plaintiffs eviction after this lawsuit was filed were
13
designed to carry out undisclosed nefarious conspiratorial conduct.
14
15 In her motion to dismiss, ECF No. 22, Governor Brown asserted numerous claims of
16 immunity described as: "Tenth Amendment;" "state sovereignty;" "discretionary immunity;" and
17 "qualified immunity." These immunities, if available, were made problematic and potentially
18
untenable when Defendant Governor Brown and Defendant Sheriff Reese were provided copies of
19
the State Court of Appeals ruling that the Circuit Court default proceedings were a "nullity" and
20
without jurisdiction.
21
Defendant Governor Brown's immunity defenses are also inconsistent with her official
22

11
open in Bell Atlantic Corporation v. Twombly, 550 U.S. 544 (2007) and established a new
12
pleading standard under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. The F AC contains enough facts to
13
survive dismissal under Ashcroft and Twombly. The reentry of void ex parte judgment and the
14
15 recent seizure of Plaintiff s horne by State of Oregon on July 3, 2018 are enough to entitle
16 Plaintiff to amend his F AC to assert additional causes of actions ripened after reentry of judgment

25 Trust's standing to sell Plaintiffs horne and participate in the seizure of Plaintiffs horne while
26
this lawsuit was pending.

7
provided in Section 401(a) of Title IV that a foreclosure moratorium be enforced:
8
"It is the sense of the Congress that mortgage holders, institutions, and mortgage
9 servicers should not initiate a foreclosure proceeding or a foreclosure sale on any
homeowner until the foreclosure mitigation provisions, like the Hope for
10
Homeowners program, as required under title II, and the President's "Homeowner
11 Affordability and Stability Plan" have been implemented and determined to be
operational by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development and the Secretary
12 of the Treasury."
13 It is implicit in Pub. L. 111-22 that Congress intended the Federal and State Defendants to
14
engage in a concerted effort to prevent mortgage fraud and homelessness. This Court need look no
15
further than this case to find a glaring failure of the Federal and State Defendants to faithfully
16
execute this law. On July 3, 2018, the Defendants watched while the State of Oregon seized
17
possession of Plaintiff's horne and rendered Plaintiff homeless, more than six months AFTER
18
19 Plaintiff had commenced this lawsuit pursuant to the contractual provisions set forth in the
20 original deed oftrust. It is fair to conclude that most foreclosures are violative of this Federal law

Since his inauguration, President Trump has caused more than 100 indictments to be filed
6
under seal in the Federal District of Oregon. Through Federal and State court filings, the Federal
7
8 Defendants and the U.S. Attorney's office representing them, became aware the Multnomah
9 County Circuit Court had engaged in ex parte judicial proceedings which led to the State of
10 Oregon seizing possession of Plaintiff's home under "color of law" and after the State Court of
11
Appeals had ruled the same proceedings were a "nullity."
12
The Federal Defendants make no effort to explain to this Honorable Court how this
13
alleged unlawful conspiracy to steal Plaintiff's title and real property does not ripen into a cause
14
15 of action redressable under the constitution and laws of the United States and the State of Oregon.
16 It is indisputable, and the Defendants do not dispute, that the sale of Plaintiff's home after
17 this lawsuit was commenced and the seizure of Plaintiff's home by the State of Oregon on July 3,
18
2018, deprived Plaintiff of rights under the Deed of Trust and the Federal Civil Rights statutes set
19
forth in Subchapter I of Chapter 21, Title 42 U.S. Code. Justice was obstructed in this Court and
20

15 Twitchell, 61 Wn.2d 403,378 P.2d 444 (1963), the Supreme Court of Washington confirmed the
16 conviction of Snohomish County Sheriff Robert Twitchell for "wilful neglect of duty" in that he
17 knowingly, without making a complaint and without making an arrest, permitted the keeping of a
18
house of prostitution and the practice of prostitution within the county.
19
As a Defendant named in this action, Defendant Sheriff Reese was aware Plaintiff had
20
commenced a lawsuit in December 2017 to prevent Sheriff Reese from using his powers as
21
Multnomah County Sheriff to seize possession of Plaintiff's home. Sheriff Reese does not deny he
22
23 permitted his Office to seize Plaintiff's home and obstruct justice.

25 regulatory", required the "Federal Defendants to bring a case against Oregon or to otherwise

reform Oregon's foreclosure laws." ECF No. 66 at 3.

Last update: .4ug. 28, 2018
2 we're tracking where taxpayer money has gone in the ongoing bailout of the financial system. Our database accounts for both the broader $700 billion bill and the
separate bailout of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
3 For each entity, we provide a ~<Net Outstanding" amount. which shows how deep taxpayers are in the hole after accounting for any revenue the government has
received (usually through interest or dividends).
Companies that failed to repay the government and resulted in a loss are shaded red. You can see a list of those Investments here. All other Investments either returned
4 a profit to the government or might still be repaid. Recipients of aid through TARP's housing programs (such as mortgage servicers and state housing orgs) received
subsidies that were never intended to be repaid, so we don't mark those as losses ..
5 Note: Subsidies are listed separately from the investment programs. So. for instance, Bank of America is listed twice - both as a mortgageseruicer and as a bank.

The Department of Justice's Financial Fraud Enforcement Task Force was created in November 2009 to
",-age an aggressive. coordinated and proactive. effort to investigate and prosecute financial crimes. with
6 more than 20 federal agencies, 94 U.S. Attorneys' offices and state and local partners, it is the broadest
coalition of law enforcement, investigatory and regulatory agencies ever assembled to combat fraud. Since
its formation, the task force has made great strides in facilitating increased investigation and prosecution
7 of financial crimes; enhancing coordination and cooperation among federal, state and local authorities;
addressing discrimination in the lending and financial markets and conducting outreach to the public,
victims, financial Institutions and other organizations.

In the mid- to late 2000'S, Nevada suffered from an overwhelming surge of fraudulent residential
mortgage transactions which created life-altering financial hardships for many innocent homeowners and
9 caused hundreds of millions of dollars of loss to financial institutions and investors. In 2008, the U.S.
Attorney's Office responded by making mortgage fraud prosecutions a priority. By 2009, the FBI had
identified hundreds of potential targets responsible for the fraud. The District made full use of additional
10 resources provided by DOJ Headquarters in Washington D.C. Since the inception of our mortgage fraud
program in the spring of 2008 and through the end of 2012, over 200 persons have been charged with
federal mortgage fraud crimes in Nevada. Most of those individuals were convicted and are in prison, For
11 the first several years of this program, most of the investigations and prosecutions centered around Joan
origination fraud. Over the last several years, because of the residential housing and mortgage loan crisis,
the fraudsters have moved into other areas, such as refinance and foreclosure rescue fraud, and we are
12 now prosecuting some of those cases.

Without mentioning the fact that it sold Plaintiffs home after this lawsuit was
5
commenced and on July 3, 2018 rendered Plaintiff homeless using ex parte judicial proceedings,
6
7 Defendant Deutsche Bank argues to this Court that nothing said in any of the papers submitted by
8 Plaintiff and no events "support modification or reversal of the F &Rs in any respect." This is a
10
What was omitted to permit Deutsche Bank to make this argument was a lack of candor
11
and the following evidentiary documents: original note and original deed of trust; the Purchase
12
Agreement; the Mortgage Loan Schedule; the Trustee's authority to foreclose issued by the Trust;
13
and the mortgage and pooling insurance policies, among other documentary evidence-the same
14
15 which was omitted to obtain the 2016 judgment and the 2018 ex parte default Judgment.
16 Deutsche Bank insists its motion to dismiss remains valid and Plaintiff s cannot amend the
17 complaint under any circumstance to plead a cause of action. This argument, like the others, rely
18
on sleight of hand litigation skills to conceal the fact that Plaintiff commenced his lawsuit before
19
the nonjudicial sale of his home and before Defendant Sheriff Reese seize possession. As such,
20
this litigation is not a "post-sale challenge to the completed nonjudicial foreclosure that is barred
21
by Or. Rev. Stat. § 86.797(1)" as argued by Defendant Deutsche Bank in ECF No. 67 at 5.
22
23 Rather, properly understood, the sale and seizure of Plaintiffs home after this lawsuit was
24 commenced was a conspiratorial scheme to obstruct justice; breach the contractual provisions of
25 the note and deed of trust and pursue a lack of candor before this Honorable Court.

1 This then raises the question as to why Defendant Deutsche Bank and its attorneys insist
2 on refraining from telling this Court the truth regarding any right it had to sell Plaintiff s home
3
and cause Defendant Sheriff Reese to seize Plaintiff s home after Plaintiff commenced this
4
lawsuit. A possible answer is provided by the Supreme Court of Washington in State v. Twitchell,
5
61 Wn.2d 403,378 P.2d 444 (1963), involving the conviction of Snohomish County Sheriff
6
Robert Twitchell:
7
8 "The court depends a great deal upon lawyers as a class, if not always as
individuals, and is naturally inclined to take a protective attitude toward them, so
9 long as the public is not harmed thereby. The right to practice law is a valuable
right, even if it is only a privilege, and it will not be assumed that an attorney will
10
abandon it lightly. There appears no valid reason why an attorney, in the pursuit of
11 his profession, which is an honorable one, should be subjected to the feeling of
insecurity which would most undoubtedly follow from the knowledge that he can
12 be "disbarred" at any moment by a sheriff who may happen to have a grudge
against him, and even without his awareness that the "disbarment" has taken
13 place."
14
The arguments of Defendant Deutsche Bank and its attorneys generate an
15
appearance of complacency within the judicial system where lawyers are comfortable with
16
obstructing justice and depriving pro se litigants of their day in court such as what
17
happened in this case and the cases involving borrowers Abderrahim Saddas, Pamela
18
20 The filing of a lawsuit is the assertion of a federal right which cannot be defeated
21 by local matters in a State court. "The principle is general and necessary. (Citation
22
omitted.). If the Constitution and laws of the United States are to be enforced, this Court
23
cannot accept as [mal the decision of the state tribunal as to what are the facts alleged to
24
give rise to the right or to bar the assertion of it, even upon local grounds." Davis v.
25
Wechsler, 263 U.S. 22, 24 (1923). Yet, this is the outcome Defendant Deutsche Bank and

1 This case is unique and distinguishable in that while a Federal Court and a State
2 court are proceeding along parallel paths regarding the same piece of real estate,
3
Defendant Deutsche Bank has decided to frustrate the jurisdictions of both Courts by
4
selling the real estate and then using the agency of Defendant Sheriff Reese to complete
5
the obstruction of justice by seizing Plaintiff s home, thus creating a gaping disconnect
6
7 between the laws on the books and the arguments of the Defendants.
8 De novo review is particularly warranted here. All Defendants permitted Plaintiff s horne
9 to be seized by the State of Oregon without lawful authority to aid and abet an alleged conspiracy.

7 knowledge of the State Court of Appeals Order ruling the ex parte proceedings a "nullity", ECF
8 No. 53 and the role of his Office in executing the ex parte Writ on July 3,2018, copies of which
15 parte Writ had a profound impact on his motion to dismiss with prejudice and indeed, on the
16 motions to dismiss with prejudice filed by the other Defendants. See ECF No. 68 at 6 (Dismissal
17 with prejudice is warranted because F AC cannot be amended to allege a "cognizable legal theory
18
of recovery.").
19
Because the State trial court proceedings were ex parte, Plaintiff was not allowed an
20
opportunity to participate in the hearings and never received a copy of the ex parte Writ from the
21
State trial Court or Defendant Sheriff Reese.
22
23 Defendant Sheriff Reese, as a Defendant in this Federal action and after making a timely
24 appearance through his attorney, had actual knowledge that this lawsuit was pending in this
25 Federal Court. His conduct in failing to bring the ex parte Writ to this Court's attention was
26
willful. At no time did he seek guidance from this Court as to the Federal law applicable to his

2 guidance from the State Court of Appeals as to the State law applicable to his execution of the ex

Defendant Sheriff Reese took the Oath of Office on August 16, 2016. In a public speech,

9 Defendant Sheriff Reese did not live up to his speech when he failed to notify this Court

that he was being ordered by the State trial court to obstruct justice on this Federal Court.

2 conspiracy, they were able, together with other coconspirators, to cause Multnomah County
3

Sheriff Reese's alleged unconstitutional seizure of Plaintiffs home and delivering the same to

7 On June 28, 2018, the U.S. Supreme Court granted the petition for a writ of certiorari in
8 Obduskey v. McCarthy & Holthus LLP, Case No. 17-1307, reported in Obduskey v. Wells Fargo,
9 879 F.3d 1216 (10th Cir. 2018), which the Court linked to Greer v. Green Tree Servicing LLC,
10
Case No. 17-1351. The issue in both cases is: "Whether the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act
11
applies to non-judicial foreclosure proceedings."
12
These Defendants do not inform this Court of the impact this Supreme Court petition
13
could have on the precedents of the Ninth Circuit; their motions to dismiss with prejudice and
14
16 Instead, Defendants Quality Loan and McCarthy Holthus rely on the responses filed by
17 Defendant Deutsche Bank, ECF No. 67, and urge this Court to dismiss this action against them
18
with prejudice. See ECF No. 69 at 2.
19
This request is quite profound. After this lawsuit was commenced, these Defendants sold
20
Plaintiff home to Defendant Deutsche Bank at the behest/direction of Defendant Deutsche Bank.
21
These Defendants never sought approval from a court of competent jurisdiction before the sale.
22
23 Nor is any evidence provided to any Court to support a right to conduct the nonjudicial
24 foreclosure sale and the ex parte seizure of Plaintiff home by Sheriff Reese while this case is

1 Plaintiff's deed of trust provided he be allowed to bring a lawsuit. The sale of Plaintiff's
2 home by these Defendants after Plaintiff commenced this lawsuit violated the terms of the
3
contract so completely as to render the note and deed of trust void ab initio.
4
This must so because this Court held in Sovereign v. Deutsche Bank, 856 F. Supp. 2d
5
1203, 1214 (D. Or. 2012), that the "trust deed does not become split or separated from the note."
6
7 See also, Plaintiff's Objection No.3 in ECF No. 62 at 16-19.; FAC paragraphs 52-56 at 13.
8 Sovereign v. Deutsche Bank provides that by logical deduction, the debt is the heart of the
9 judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure process and the sale and seizure ofthe home. While a demand
10
for payment of the debt appears to be the first step in the foreclosure process, a mortgage
11
insurance claim is usually made the debt is accelerated.
12
Defendants Quality Loan and McCarthy Holthus did not live up to their part of the note
13
and deed of trust and they failed to inform this Honorable Court why their motions to dismiss with
14
15 prejudice remain viable after this Court has been obstructed in rendering a final judgment by the

18
their clients to obstruct justice in this Court and deny Plaintiff his constitutional and civil rights to
