PROJECT A-3: Foreclosure Fraud-Related Claims Against Paragon Commercial Bank

About This Project

Significance: If U.S. Banks were allowed to fraudulently foreclose UNCONTESTED (by denying legal representation) on mortgages that were: (1) NEVER late; (2) NOT delinquent; and in one case, (3) PAID-IN-FULL, and then be allowed to wantonly throw families out on the street, the consequences would be dire.

Criminal Indictments Filed:  Fraud, racketeering, sabotage, corruption, grand larceny, defamation, assault, and attempted murder

Civil Claims:  Compensatory damages, punitive damages, special damages, speculative damages and general damages for pain-suffering-and-loss-of-amenity, including loss of companionship, loss of reputation, loss of consortium and loss of enjoyment of life 

Estimated Claim Amount: $200 million +  Note: Awards or settlement amounts received in excess of net worth prior to this fraud, will fund a charitable foundation whose mandate will be (among other things) to support and protect others victimized by bank foreclosure fraud.
